Didnt know where to post this cause theres no TV forum.

Anyway, did anyone just watch the Mark Thomas dispatches documentary on coca cola just now? Shocking stuff. You can watch it now if you go to the 4od website.
I wont spoil it for you...

Ive just seen that 4od only works in the UK and Ireland. I'm just downloading it now. If it lets me I'll try to upload this onto youtube for the benefit of non-british and non-irish comrades.

You need to see this.

Mark Thomas basically blows the whistle on the bastards. Like i said i wont spoil it for you. Unfortunately Channel 4 havent made the download available yet so we'll just have to wait for it i suppose.

I used to boycott coca cola really strictly, but it was all you could drink at a summer job, 2006. Bugger I missed it. for fucking Eastenders :angry:

Do you have to download 4OD?

RR, you have to download 4OD yes, but it's no hassle and is fairly quick.
You can get it here (http://www.channel4.com/4od/get4od/index.jsp). It's pretty good actually, lots of free stuff on there - I have been watching Brasseye and the first series of Gordon Ramsay's 'The F Word'.

I am currently busy writing an essay, but I will try and watch the documentary later or tomorrow and say what I think.

If you download it brother - upload it to Veoh or Stage6 - they're much better quality :)

sorry dude- sneaky c4 bastards seem to have made this undownloadable. Its a kind of desktop launched application that doesnt let you store it as a file on your hard disc. UK and Irish comrades will still be able to watch this if they download 4od but sorry to everyone else.

If anyone knows how to sidestep this let me know!

I think there are programmes you can get that record off the screen, though I'm not sure if they would work on 4OD.

Does anybody know of a good one, I'd quite like to be able to record off 4OD?
