Compelling behind-the-scenes

Warning: Spoilers
I always enjoy watching behind-the-scenes documentaries (Hearts of Darkness being top-shelf for sure) and Dockers: Writing the Wrongs doesn't disappoint. Jimmy McGovern leads the real-life Dockers erstwhile strikers to craft a script for Dockers.

Jimmy is a master writer because at the end he writes two versions of the script which is status quo and then which is pro-modernisation about the docking industry (and impacting on the jobs of dockers. Who to believe? You could feel the dockers cum scripwriters feeling a sense of deflatement when Jimmy read the script that was pro-modernisation.
