Louis Theroux: America's Medicated Kids
« on: April 12, 2010, 03:47:07 pm »
Hello,

Most American's are probably unfamiliar with Louis Theroux, but Louis is responsible for some very interesting documentaries, often with American subjects. I expect the program will be available on the BBC iPlayer for a week (maybe longer) after the broadcast, but if your IP address indicates that you are from outside of the UK, you will not be able to view the program. You might investigate using a proxy service, but because the program is a large file, I would suppose that you need a paid-for proxy. I imagine there are services that will give access for just a day (so, little money).

To be broadcast on Sunday, 18th April, on BBC2, at 9PM.

Anyway, here's the blurb from the BBC: http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b00s56gx.

Thanks. Since I live in the US, I probably won't be able to watch it, but I'll post it on facebook just the same.

I expect that this documentary will end up on BBC America.

Hi [...],

Although the broadcast details are detailed in the BBC link, I probably should have included the details in my opening post (now edited). ::)

Anyway, here you go: Sunday, 18th April, on BBC2, at 9PM.

Thanks [...]. Unfortunately, I don't get BBC and no one in my area gets BBC2.

[...],

Unless I'm mistaken, BBC American is a collection of the most popular BBC programs (from all the BBc channels) into one channel, and the programs will go out in the US sometime after being broadcast in the UK.
