I've just received an email from Digiguide about this documentary which is about the sexual abuse of children In Pakistan. It should be quite interesting in light of recent events, but I wonder how long Channel 4 have been waiting to show this as the timing seems a bit coincidental.

It's on C4 Monday 1st September 23:00.

    You could take a camera crew to any 3rd world country and make such a documentary.

    You could have filmed it live in the BBC's own studios over the course of about 30 years in Jimmy Saville's dressing room!!

    ...and it would have been called "Savile's Room of Shame."

    I was reading about this programme last week, apparently in a survey one third of Pakistani men don't think sex with an underage boy is bad, with many blaming the boys. Also 90% of Pakistan's street boys have been sexually abused, shocking statistics!
