From Karen Barratt - Mast Sanity       
 
I am intrigued by the 'legal reasons' mentioned as this programme was originally screened on 11 Nov 2004. Mast Sanity had been in touch with the researcher for a period of about six months during the production. The 'whistle-blower' identified in the programme revealed the dirty tricks employed by T-mobile. (He subsequently agreed to participate in  ITV's  'Tonight with Trevor MacDonald' shown 7 Feb 2005.) As far as the BBC are concerned I would have thought any legal issues would have been sorted out at the time of the original transmission. I was a bit surprised that they were repeating the prog as it's 'old news' although it's true that it generated a lot of press interest at the time as it featured the survey of masts near/on schools. We had a number of requests for comment from print journalists.
 
I fail to see how a legal reason could prevent transmission a day after the programme was actually transmitted but then the media moves in a mysterious way.

Subject: BBC 3 phone mast programme

A few campaigners have contacted me today after phoning the BBC to complain. They have been informed that the programme on ‘phone masts’ didn’t go out last night due to legal reasons but wouldn’t tell them why. It did go out on Monday night on BBC 3!! However most people didn’t realise it had been changed including me. 

 

We need to persuade the BBC to put it on BBC 1 for everyone to view

 

Website to complain in writing http://www.bbc.co.uk/complaints/make_complaint_step1.shtml or phone the BBC complaints line 08700 100222

 

The schedule was changed but not in time for the Sunday TV guides.

I wonder why?

OFCOM swallowed up the British Broadcasting Standards Authority so they also regulate the BBC  !! First put it out on BBC3 and make sure no one sees it rescheduled!  I hope I’m wrong; this business does make you suspicious!!
