Tonight on channel 4, Dipatches has another scare-mongering documentary on. This time it’s about mobile phone charges (yikes). To look at the advert you’d think it was about some imminent global catastrophe, war, hunger, famine, plague but no it’s actually about being over charged on your mobile phone bill (horrifying). I guess they’ve actually exhausted the subjects that they can get the general public worked up about, so they’ve begun to scrape the bottom of the barrel.

I may disagree with the Dispatches promotion and their Daily Mail-esque scare tactics but they are usually pretty informative and well researched programmes. So check it out, if your interested, tonight at 8.
