Sweeny seems a little more confident in those clips.

btw, this special programme is an hour long, a proper hour that is (since the BBC in the UK doesn't have commercial breaks).
RadioTimes TV Listings - The Secrets of Scientology - BBC1 - Tuesday 28 September 9:00pm - 10:00pm





edit: broken link

Shall we start a 'footbullet' betting pool? Make your best guess on the timing, type, and scale of Co$ response to this.

Which will it be?
A terse bawww letter vaguely accusing Sweeney of being unprofessional while listing the alleged good works of Applied Scholastics and Narconon?

A glitzy distraction blitz to 'show' how Scientology has expanded more in the past two weeks than in the previous 75 million years, complete with a gold-plated, triple life-size statue of BFFs Tom and Dave?

A lolsuit accusing BBC execs of raping puppies?

Let the bidding commence.

--An appearance by Tommy Davis -- who will say -- scientology has opened three new idle orgs in 2010 -- and -- to find out the "truth" about scientology come to one of its churches (orgs).

--Another issue of Freedom in which John Sweeny, the BBC, and the British governing entities will be purported to be deviant criminals. This will also contain further attacks on Mike Rinder, Marty Rathbun, Marc Headley, Nancy Many, Amy Scobee and Jeff Hawkins. It will have material on the new idle orgs, the volunteer ministers in Haiti -- and -- it will tell people to find out the "truth" about scientology come to one of its churches (orgs).

--Scientology will take further legal action against Brian Mandigo for his involvement in collaborating with John Sweeney and the BBC. (What? But Brian Mandigo never even met John Sweeney. Exactly.)

--Scientology will have big IAS funding events and get permits to close the streets wherever they have idle orgs, especially in Los Angeles and Washington DC. These events (in addition to pressuring the flock for more money) will be designed to show the public at large how wonderful scientology really is but the public at large will never get the message due to scientology's white-sheet-tech that will keep anyone who is not a scientologist from seeing what goes on in the event.

--Tom Cruise and John Travolta will do the talk show circuit promoting how nice they are. Oprah will collaborate.

Apparently, Larry Anderson will be featuring quite a bit in the Panorama documentary

Nothing there yet apart from the heads-up about the programme date/time.

OP updated:
New promo on the BBC Panorama YouTube channel:

Sweeney's having quite a lot of fun with this.
Somewhere in a cult desert compound, a little dwarf is about to explode.

There's previously unseen footage of Rinder from the 2007 Scientology & Me Panorama programme, in close up and animated. He looks much worse than what we saw of him standing in the background on the original broadcast. Quite shockingly bad. Frail, skin'n'bones.



Imagine what Heber Jentzsch must look like by now.

The scientologists are giving the mirror copies of the promo videos the thumbs down on Youtube. Nice to know they are interested . On the first promo there was only 1 dislike and now there's 38 (93 likes). On the new one just put up today, there's 23 dislikes, 17 likes).

If you haven't rated the videos, go to the OP links for the mirror videos and give them the thumbs up.

Here's some text snippets...


Before the 2007 Panorama shouty episode aired and after the cult's recording of the shouty incident had hit the internet and the news media, John Sweeney describes in the article how concerned he was at first that he'd let his team down but then...



In talking about the new panorama documentary, Amy Scobee and the Headley's are mentioned in the article. Also the fact that auditing sessions are routinely recorded using hidden cameras with the A-lister's room having a two-way mirror with a video camera behind it. Claire Headley tells of how she saw tapes of Cruise being audited by Marty Rathbun, telling him things that he would not want people to know.

Great stuff, Sponge!

I get this, when I click on your YT sites re this:



Ok, found it!

??? Do you know which link we should go to, for Wed night?
I have the BBC IPlayer deal--if that's it, but which show on it?
If you already said it, I apologize----I want to see it.
The one you said is from 9-10pm.
Is that EST, CT, PST? EST=east coast
PST=Pacific Standard time
CT=Central Time/Midwest/Chicago

Thanks

None of those. It is UK time, British Summer Time. But that's the TV broadcast time. It goes up on the BBC iplayer site after it has been broadcast.
In anycase, you won't be able to watch it on BBC iPlayer outside the UK but you can be sure that someone will have it up online somewhere else for download not too long after broadcast.
There is also talk that someone in the uk may attempt to stream live it from a webcam pointed at their TV and have a chat party, lol.

Tory, it may take a couple of hours for the Panorama prog to appear on iPlayer, and even then, if you're outside the UK (as you are) you'll only be able to view it via a proxy.

I'm recording the programme, and the second the end credits finish I'll be packaging it up and uploading it to YouTube. As it's an hour long show, I'll have to split it into four sections (thankfully YouTube have extended their video time length to 15mins 59 secs!) but I reckon I'll be uploading it about half an hour after the programme finishes. I'll be posting links on my channel the moment it's live.

Mike.
