I think Robert Elliot had the best thing to say about this - "I suspect
that any programme which tries to be balanced is inevitably going to be
interpreted by *both* sides as biased. The programme was only about half
an hour long, remember. That's not nearly enough time to present every
argument by both sides." I don't think the program was biased, it's just
not what you or me would have produced. Therefore, is it really
productive to complain about its 'bias'?
