Perhaps if you could get past your prejudices you’d see that the black spotter was able to speak a lot more coherently than a number of his white counterparts. And as for using an ex Marine, and qualified pilot (via a charity specialising in disabled flying) who has won a BAFTA award for TV presenting for an aviation programme - outrageous!

there was no prejudice there. all he's saying is that the bbc is trying to tick all the PC boxes. he did forget the transgender BA captain though.

arthur williams can't present a TV programme for toffee imo. his series on flying around the british isles was very nice, mostly due to the filming and scenery, but at myrtle avenue trying to blag his way through 10 minutes, painful.
