I don't imagine it will be outrageous and disgusting I just imagine it will be extremely annoying and of course you're right, no one is being made to watch it which is why I won't be watching.

You're setting yourself up against the supposed judgers while being pretty judgy yourself btw...

Exactly! It looks like a bunch of narcissistic young people to me from the bits I've seen but I will be watching to see if I can learn anything........ Hmm

There we go again, exWife, not being 'nice'. We always have to be 'nice', don't we? Some of us are sick of it. Especially when we're seeing our rights being eroded, our safety & dignity being ignored and the English language mangled beyond all belief. To satisfy a tiny minority of narcissists. So please explain why we should be 'nice'.

Thanks Betty. I read the write up. There are a few bits that sound interesting, but by and large it will be irritating beyond belief, I think. I will find myself thinking judgemental things, and I do try not to do that!

i must have missed the conscription of viewers for this.

just..don’t watch. and if you do watch, and you feel you should live-blog your impotent rage on mumsnet, you need to examine your motives.

actually, if you’re going to spend the time between now and it airing, speculating wildly about how outrageous and disgusting it will be, you’re just not very nice.

Why not watch it? I'm quite interested to know more about how the media portray this debate. Wouldn't watching this do that?

...as in..why the anger at a trailer before it's even aired?

daimbars · 06/05/2018 21:10

Just don't watch it Confused

RealRamona · 06/05/2018 21:09

Why the anger?

You are missing being lectured about how pregnant women is oppressive and you should henceforth refer to them as pregnant persons.

terryleather · 06/05/2018 21:02

There is no way I can watch any of this - just reading about it gives me the radge.

I will observe from the sidelines via this thread though...Grin
