GARY JEWISSsays
I enjoyed the series about fascism in britain. i am pretty sure that the presenter made a rather important error in the second episode when she said:
We can see from their newspaper searchlight (sic) that the national front hailed what took place in lewisham as a triumph, the headline read
” Establishment conspirators and red mobs fail to stop the national front advance”
Surley it should be Spearhead and not Searchlight.
