@RobbieGibb Rather like the EU, reform from within is not possible for the BBC, as it does not recognise it has a problem.
The BBC iPlayer was a technological revolution ahead of the world and missed the opportunity to be a global streaming service and escape the licence fee. #DefundTheBBC

@siobhancoogan @bbcpress @BBCiPlayer So is it just that Reeva Steenkamp's name is missing from the trailer that's the issue and the onus being on the man over the murdered woman as if she's just a bit-part character in the whole story?

@HarveyHolmes156 @cannemckenzie @bbcpress @BBCiPlayer I think the issue is that the trailer centres him and makes her death a plot point in the life of a successful athlete. There's a big discussion with all kinds of true crime about how it fails to centre victims rather than perpetrators.
