The producers behind the immigration show denied the allegations of IT platform racists. He said: "The voice you hear in the series is the voice we hear in our performance."
The immigration series of Channel 4 can be traced back to where you are from six participants. Some of them hold the scenery of anti -immigrant, follow the footsteps of refugees, from Syria and Somalia to the United Kingdom. It is called racists around the world and has been criticized by international amnesty organizations and some charity.
However, one of the producers, Liam Humphreys, said: "Interacting with those who have different opinions (and ask) why do they think so?"
In the first episode, a writer named Dave suggested to push the mines away from the beach to prevent the boat from: "Just like a mouse, you throw food outside."
Joint executing producer Emma Young acknowledged that the platform racists have extreme opinions. She said: "But these voices you hear in the series are the sounds we heard in the country when we cast, and they are the sound of shaping our political landscape."
"People may find what they hear, but you ... you must understand why they feel uncomfortable. I don't want it to preach at all."
Hamfreder said that the show is about the same sense and "understanding others; not to say that you must agree with their opinions, but ... debate from Twitter ... and try to discuss it. You can understand that something can be understood. People's point of view "
Alisa Pomeroy, the person in charge of Channel 4 and the person in charge of facts entertainment, said: "Expressing difficult opinions in this series, which will make some people feel uncomfortable."
However, she added that it is important that the series does not hesitate to accurately represent the strong view of British immigrants. She said that in order to "be able to challenge and fight these views, we need to be able to play them." "Otherwise, we just drive online, they have shifted, and we will eventually have combustible activities, such as the riots in last summer."
The series is based on the Australian format. Pomeroy said that it is worth noting that the charities who criticized the show did not see the plan. She said she had similar strong protests on Australian performances, but she continued to win awards and became part of school courses.
The series provides "stealth information" as Handfreds said because it is "entertaining, but you are also dealing with complex issues." It includes regional conflicts of potted history and first -hand narratives of refugees, because the contributor crosses the crossing point of the mountains, travel through the African desert, and experience the cross of the boat.
POMEROY said that Channel 4 has never done such risks and ambitions, involving the immersion of ordinary people in a very dangerous place. MINNOW has seven security appraisers, two psychologists monitor participants, security and legal teams, and the person in charge of Channel 4 signed a risk assessment every night during the shooting.
The transfer of geopolitics has changed the plan of the last moment. Pomeroy said that because some countries become too dangerous, they will not be able to make this series.
After the abduction, the participants were safely withdrawn from the market by the market. The Tunisian government revoked the permission at the last moment to cross the boat by shooting the contributors.
"Under the restrictions of health, safety, and hostile shooting solutions, we must provide them with the most authentic experience." The producer cut the engine half and hired the local Lebanon Coast Guard to rescue them to rescue them Essence
The participants were afraid and thought they were about to be arrested. When they discovered the truth, they were very angry at first, but then they knew that it had to be immersed as much as possible so that they could sympathize with it.
Mino said that they had watched the show and were satisfied with their portrayal.
Yang said that they all "walked for a while ... to varying degrees", "thought has changed or at least educated."
Hamfreds added that it affected all of them and had a lasting impact on how they viewed the world.
