Hi Will
I think you have to separate yourself and your own expertise from your critical appraisal of this programme. I have seen a number of your videos and it is obvious that you are someone who knows what he is talking about when it comes to sound quality (I also read your piece on just how you make your videos - left me a bit glazed eyed to be honest, far to technical for me!) But for almost everyone watching the programme as a mere viewer, it was a grand spectacle. Sometimes I think knowing too much can spoil your enjoyment.
