Fuck me, that was unrelenting miseryjust watched 'Ghosts' about them drowned Morcambe Bay cockle pickers. Was gruelling misery all the way - Didn't like it much too be honest.

Yeah - but it didn't really seem to say anything - just show you how shit life was for teh people who drowned and show them to be working to pay off their families debts. I dunno, I suppose it was emotive rather than educational which seemed to put me off.
The gangmaster didn't come out of it so badly as it happens, he came accross as a bit of a twat but not really as bad as you'd think- It didn't really explore the whole human trafficing angle that much either - I don't feel like I know much more having watched it than I did before.
It was very beautifully shot though.
