RDF Television, the distributors of Martin Durkin's "Great Global Warming Swindle" have landed themselves in hot water over a documentary on the Queen.

BBC and ITV have suspended the commission of programs from RDF after it was revealed that a RDF documentary used misleading footage of the Queen storming out of a portrait sitting. RDF was forced to apologize to the BBC for the misleading footage, while the BBC chief executive was forced to apologize to the Queen. Ouch!

Seems it isn't just Durkin himself who has a penchant for misrepresentation. And to think people actually believe that Durkin's Swindle film should be aired in our schools.

Head of Friends of the Earth, Tony Juniper, has the scoop in the Guardian.

For those of the paper-print orientation, attached is a transcription of the ABC Australia's Tony Jones interview with "Great Global Warming Swindle" director, Martin Durkin.

Probably a good idea to store this one away. You never know when YouTube will pull down the videos.

Thanks to our anonymous friend in the UK for sending this on to us. Fabulous!

Here's a fun, albeit easy, game of "tell me what's wrong with this picture" for you regular DSB'ers out there.

As many of you know this is Tim Ball , star of the recent "Great Global Warming Swindle" that is receiiving a regular thrashing right now, even by one of the scientists that appeared in the film. I blurred it a little to make at least somewhat of a challenge.
