Viewers’ Views
“THE GUARDIANS” c The N.Z.B.C. seems to be [ doing its job well in my ‘ opinion. As well as the trash, ‘ there are many informative, ' amusing and entertaining programmes. Surely, if a programme annoys you. don’t- watch it. “Viewers’ views” on May 2 really toped the poll. The “Dream World” complainer has the cheek to call himself a decent-minded person. In my opinion, this person’s mind is small and completely closed. And who cares if “Goggle Eyes” doesn’t see “The Guardians” again — I don’t. As for the crack about the power cuts — if that is supposed to be clever, I would not like “Goggle Eyes” to have anything to do with the comedies on my television set. May I remind people that there is a thing called radio which is very entertaining. — SIXTEEN-YEAR-OLD. “A QUESTION OF SURVIVAL” This documentary deserved a fuller review and a more acceptable time slot than 10.02 on a Sunday evening. As an eye-opener I would rate it with the recent film on the famine in Ethiopia — except that poisoning is not a localised disaster which can be prevented from happening here. It is of world-wide importance yet was not advertised enough for people to decide to stay up and see it' on a cold Sun-
day night. I have spoken to many who have missed it, and I wonder if it could be repeated, at a more acceptable viewing time. This is “I Care” year. — CARING.
Answer to Correspondent M. O’NEILL. — “Barlow At Large” was screened on March 10, 17 and 24.
