BBC in new fakery row as show made by Richard Branson’s son’s firm showed ‘partying alcohol-ravaged Aborigines’ who were actually at a WAKE

‘The BBC was last night dragged into a new fakery row after a documentary about Australian aborigines ‘ravaged by alcohol addiction’ misled viewers by pretending to show a ‘party scene’ which was actually a wake.
An episode of Hidden Australia presented by Reggie Yates showed mourners having a few drinks and some food after the death of a friend.
But to fit with the show’s agenda, producers described it as a ‘party scene’ after they panicked when they realised they didn’t have enough footage of drinking.

It has also banned any more shows made by Sundog Pictures which is owned by Sir Richard Branson’s 31-year-old son Sam, reports The Sun.’
