14. What I have learnt about my research
• I have learnt that that the BBC has grown from an
educational standpoint into a full entertainment and
educational program provider. In having to research
into their programs and such programs as the real
peaky blinders, catching a predator and national
geographic. These all had very different styles of
shots and information providing in each but I've
learnt that all the documentary all have some
information to be taken away.
