This Monday, we're hosting a webinar for TM Pro members with @EmmaYoung & Liam Humphreys, the executive producers of @Minnow Films talking about the making of Channel 4 series Go Back to Where You Came From. Episode one airs tonight so do take a look and make up your own mind about a show that is already attracting some controversy

@RobinParker what were your thoughts on the first episode?

Robin Parker
@BecsHall A lot to like and the participants took the whole thing seriously and were clearly shocked at times. It does walk that line of poverty tourism as you know they have security close at all times but they seemed to have done things as 'real' as they could for a TV show.. But if something had happened to the people they met while they were there and they were whisked to safety, it would have been very difficult to justify airing. Would've liked one or two with moderate/conflicted views.
