PETER HITCHENS: Blue Lights was brilliant. So why has the BBC made it one more propaganda vehicle?

www.dailymail.co.uk, May 5, 2024
Is there a rule which says that any successful BBC drama must become a propaganda vehicle? I have pointed out here how Call The Midwife , which began as a warm-hearted Sunday evening family show, has become fiercely politically correct. It still amazes me that a series whose main characters are actually 1960s nuns has repeatedly been used to make the case for abortion on demand. But it is so. Now, after a brilliant opening season, the same thing is happening to Blue Lights, a clever police series set in Belfast , and so fascinatingly different from similar dramas set on the mainland.
