to be cross as a bbc drama

This is fairly light hearted. I like drama and an a sucker for call the midwife. However I'm getting fed up with bbc writers feeling the need to push a social / moral point. Last night a man was arrested for kissing a man. The whole episode was pitched with the message of 'look how bad we used to treat gay ppl' with lots of very unsubtle metaphors.
Don't get me wrong it's awful when you see how ppl used to get treated but surely it's not historically accurate to paint all the characters as sympathisers..surely it would have far more impact to really display it as it was so that we could see for ourselves. It's not that I disagree with the point being made but.disagree with being spoonfed. Last time it was feminism in lark Rise.
Just wish the bbc would credit us with brains!
Ok rant over.. Just needed to splurge. Please carry on discussing important issues Wink

i watched 30 mins of downton abbey and gave up, it ticked every current liberal requirement. And this was 1920.
