ggreigHere's the response I got to my complaint to Question Time:
Dear Dr. GREIG
Thanks for taking the time to contact the BBC about Question Time, broadcast on 13 June 2013. We forwarded your concerns to the Executive Editor who passed on the following response:
Question Time is a current affairs programme that covers a range of subjects and debates issues in a UK context. It chooses panellists carefully across the series. We regularly invite politicians and non-politicians from one part of the UK to appear on the programme in other parts of the UK. This programme was no different – it was not an independence special discussing exclusively issues related to the independence referendum. It dealt with a range of topical issues in the news. We aim to offer the audience across the UK as well as in the room, as wide a range of voices and opinions on the issues being discussed as possible.
The only difference in this edition was in the makeup of the audience. 16 and 17 year olds have been given the vote for the first time in next year's independence referendum and we wanted to look at what sort of things were of interest to and influenced this age group, to acknowledge why these people were being given the vote.
The composition of the audience reflected both those for and against independence, and contained a number of people who were undecided. It was also broadly representative of voting patterns across the party political spectrum.
The Green Party has been on the programme twice since March, and we have offered the Scottish Greens a seat on the panel the next time we come to Scotland in the next series.
Nigel Farage represents a party with growing UK support and their recent electoral gains since the 2010 general election makes them of interest to our audience.
Thanks again for contacting us.
Kind Regards

Radio 4’s “Any Questions?” does it all so much better. It’s a format that benefits from not having cameras to play to.

Date: 2013-06-29 01:13 pm (UTC)Similarly, those who are in favour of Scotland having good relationships with continental Europe may have welcomed another chance for Mr Farage to publicise his contempt for Scotland, assuming that this contempt exists and Mr F is brazen or stupid enough to show it - I didn't see the episode.
Either way, I tend to agree that a show about an important thing in Scotland, about which rUK will not have a say should feature the arguments of both sides, and the Scottish politicians involved. On those 'special' episodes I have seen, questions on other topics do occur, usually as light relief, so the 'not a special episode' argument is somewhat specious.

Date: 2013-06-29 06:57 pm (UTC)As it turned out, I thought the two pro-independence speakers on the panel (Angus Robertson, the SNP leader at Westminster, and Lesley Riddoch) were more effective than the other four anyway - although I may be biased on this matter!
However, while how the independence argument came off is of interest to me (and of course the Greens favour independence), I would rather have seen the Lib Dems (anti-independence) included as well. The Scottish Greens seem to have got particularly few invites over the years, though, and that seemed especially unfair to me.
