|    Hill documentary    |

      From: vintageapplemac@gmail.com              I enjoyed the Damon Hill documentary that aired on Sky F1 yesterday       evening. It was a little superficial, I thought, but that didn't detract       from it too much at all; I think it was quite clear it was made for a more       generalist audience rather than F1 obsessives, and it did cover a lot of       ground and was quite emotive.              I thought Damon and his wife both came over well, good eggs. The       documentary did a good job of conveying the shadow that his father's death       cast over his life, and you could see that it's still something that is       quite raw for him, even 50 years later.              I was quite surprised by the archive footage of Schumacher; I'd forgotten       just how much of a *prick* he was in the mid-90s! The 95/96 seasons were       when I got into F1 and I remember hating Schumacher, watching the doc last       night really reminded me why...              It wasn't as good as the Jenson Button mini-series from a couple of years       ago, that was a fantastic documentary, but I'd recommend giving Hill a       watch, it's good stuff.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
