Sacred Rivers.

It is a computer query because its on my hard drive.

I downloaded Sacred River with Simon Reeve Part 3 The Yangzte on to my BBC Iplayer. Everything is fine but at 44minutes the location changes to Nanjing. He walks to a viewing platform and looks across a bridge over the river. The traffic is fairly dense but it is driving on the left hand side of the road a la UK. Fifteen seconds later the is another shot of the bridge and, magically, they have changed sides.

I know it is an editing problem but can you reverse the output or recording from a TV camera unintentionally? Maybe the person doing it thought that all traffic in the world drove on the left. Some people think they all drive on the right.

Fareastdriver,

Don't know what I'm more worried about, you watching a BBC documentary in such obsessive detail, or the Chinese traffic magic trick.

reverse the output or recording from a TV camera unintentionally
No, even more so these days when everything is saved onto a production recorder via HDMI.

A recent Internet "funny" apparently showed a London taxicab. The driver was sitting on the left of the vehicle.
