Fairplay, that was complete garbage viewing pleasure.
No action!! 🙁
Best scene was right at the end and then flicked over to radio 1x.

Consensus from videogame developers last night was "WTF am I watching?" followed by "What a load of bollocks"

Rockstar [url= https://twitter.com/RockstarGames/status/643894919774478336 ]had this to say[/url]:

@BBC Was Basil Brush busy? What exactly is this random, made up bollocks?

Dread to think what the legal fees were.

Harry Potter should have cast a spell to make the bad lawyer man go away.

For a bit I thought I was watching a documentary.([edit]How do such appalling scripts get to production??!)

Switched off to watch something more realistic (Sons of Anarchy).

I'm told that when the BBC announced it, R* had a bit of a paddy about not being consulted and didn't give permission / tried to get it blocked. Their response doesn't surprise me.

Rockstar's original grievance was to do with the use of their trademark on a project they had no involvement in.

I thought it was alright, except the lawyer, who got on my nerves.
