One Day in Gaza. (Warning. Knee-jerk review.) How can I review this programme as objectively as, say, Carol Midgley of The Times does? Midgley is clearly ready willing and able to take “One day in Gaza” at face value. It’s easy for her. She views it as - literally - “one day” in Gaza. Representing the average viewer, she sees this documentary as a straightforward 24-hour slice of life and death. That’s it. Free from unnecessary baggage (context, history, and tribal affiliation) she has it taped. Hampered by the disadvantage of partiality, I’m finding it harder to see it her way... more »
