The programme did dfall into the trap of assuming that prog was a uniquely British (or should that be English) phenomenon. Rush, anyone?


it was a programme called Prog Rock BRITANNIA so the area to be covered was already designated. Same goes with Jane (I think it was her anyway) commenting on the lack of coverage on Focus. They could have said a little more on the fact that prog was being explored elsewhere and possibly more interestingly. I think they mentioned this twice in passing & in a nullified way like saying in a sentence each time that other people abroad were doing so. So it was easily missed.
The Timeshift programme that was on last night had a bit more foreign coverage but even that was very limited
