A bit late but my two-pence worth:

I watched the repeat of the programme the other night and having done that I can only echo the comments of Kaz and Lee.

I found Martin Bashir's techniques to be troubling in this film. It seemed to me that his voiceover told a different story to the actual clips we were shown of Michael Jackson. And I didn't really understand the point of the interview at the end. It's not like he is some politician being cross-examined by Jeremy Paxman.

At the end of the day, what MJ has done to his face is his own responsibility. And the fact that he's lied about this may just be an indication that he is embarrassed to admit that he has taken the plastic surgery too far.

MJ is certainly unusual and mixed-up in many ways but I saw no evidence that he is actually bad. He definately needs to surround himself with people that are more honest with him, but in my opinion, this documentary just wasn't all that constructive.
