Cheers for the confirmation. Will catch it next time.
I emailed C4 about Rio and got:
"Thank you for contacting Channel 4 Viewer Enquiries regarding RIO.
We are sorry to learn that you were disappointed by the format and quality of this film, as previously advised Channel 4 broadcast films as they are delivered by the distributor, we have not made and changes to Rio.
However please be assured that your comments have been logged and noted for the information of those responsible for our programming.
Thank you again for taking the time to contact us. We appreciate all feedback from our viewers; complimentary or otherwise.
Regards,
Steve Reynolds
Channel 4 Viewer Enquiries"
I've replied, but whether I get a further reply is anyone's guess:
"Dear Mr Reynolds,
Thanks for your reply, but what's to stop Channel 4 ensuring the distributor send through the correct print, please, especially when it became clear that the print jumps to 16:9 so early on? I thought that would've rung alarm bells with the quality control of the print.
Thanks in advance,
Dom Robinson "
They're bloody hopeless so I doubt I'll get a reply.
