Hi Paul.

If it IS actually the programme that I was (sort of) watching while reading at the same time, and then I went out for a ciggy and apparently missed the important bit (!),then some of it was new at least. There was an American reporter standing across the water from where the WTC used to be, and he popped up several times as I remember. Again ,If I remember rightly, there was a reference at the end to the BBC having made it in co-operation with either Discovery or another American TV producer, maybe a news channel like NBC or ABC. It may well have been shown on the BBC before, it could have been an episode of Panorama before, and they have now remade it with the new bits to bring it up to date.

I am still hoping that it will be repeated at some time, although it isn't this week....I've checked....just wish I could remember what it was called!
One thing about Discovery now though, they appear to be doing a lot more up to date current affairs programmes that are broadcast once or twice, as this was, but they don't seem to be shown ever again, so I am not entirely hopeful that it will be shown again.

Give Discovery a bell or e-mail and see what they can tell you ?
