Heart of the Matter: TV or Not TV?

BBC One
on BBC One London

Joan Bakewell introduces the first in a six-part run of the programme exploring beliefs that surround topical issues.

David Burke argues that television presents complex issues in a simplistic fashion and isolates people. Lindsay Fallow of Tomorrow's World believes it benefits communal experience. Their views, and the future of television, are among themes discussed by guests Jo Brand, George Monbiot, Toby Scott and the Rev Steve Chalke.
