Folk Britan(n)ia was ok in that it was good to see a tiny bit of lots of people you would like to see more of. Part of our superficial soundbite culture but i found it profoundly dissatisfying because almost every moment of it left me wanting more but you got the feeling that the producers were saying this is all there was and all you need to know .

I think it was a programme for people who already knew, though that would be a pointless exercise, but, after all, it is television isn't it?
