Documentary / World In Action / The Birmingham Six: Their Own Story


Filmed just after they were released, this documentary gives the wrongly accused men centre stage. They retell the whole story, from being locked up,to having appeals rejected, to how being outside of the prison system for the first time in years has affected them and their relationships greatly.
Made by the now legendary World In Action team, now replaced by the joke that is `Tonight` .. this doc reminds you how much hard hitting journalism used to be common on the ITV network. If this was made now, you could expect lots of shaky camera reconstructions, over powering emotive music beds and idiot as a voice over. Good sober journailsm, that freed a bunch of innocent men.
