I can see why non Hearts fans would find it boring as it doesn't really dig into anything but none of these shows do, the recent Tottenham one was a snorefest. Have to agree. All these fly on the wall documentaries are terrible unless you're close to the subject matter, plus they're going to be tame as they need the club's cooperation to get it made. The best sport documentaries are after the fact ones made years later, like the recent Maradona one, or the ESPN 30 for 30 series, or the Last Dance.

Mikey1874 Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 Very hard to put so much content into 56 minutes. I suppose we could have had less of Gary Locke, the groundsmen and the women and more on tactics and explaining poor results. When I watch similar shows of US businesses they do a bit more of the struggles people have had. Children with cancer etc. But very much along the same lines. Focused on the people. And very successful businesses too. So those trying to find a relationship between what we saw and what they don't like are way off. Familar, expected, predicable comments though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest ToqueJambo Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 (edited) 4 minutes ago, Gambo said: It wasn't a film on Scottish football and the pandemic, it was a film about Heart of Midlothian FC in which C.L. played a huge part. How the season ended has an important part but so did Levein, certainly a bigger part than McPhee who got a lot of air time. The first 4 month of last season could have filled the 3 episodes alone and been edge of seat stuff, yet we were treated to very tame show. As you say we have been spared a shit show on TV, but the shit show still unfortunately happened for us. They filmed the whole season, then focused on the main stories of that season in the final edit. The main story was the pandemic so it makes sense that we'll see more of that. Had this been a regular season I'm sure it would have just split the season into 3 parts so the start to last season would have got more time. I'm just guessing here. The aim of a programme like this isn't to do an after-the-fact hatchet job on one person. Edited November 9, 2020 by ToqueJambo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Instead, we opened on fans walking over the bridge of doom in mid September than randomly cut to October and prematch of the Rangers game. Shame there wasn't a proper documentary film maker on the production team. It was always going to be low budget fluff,it was a BBC Scotland production. Although it's been more entertaining reading the halfwits on here raging about it tbf . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kila Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 35 minutes ago, Greedy Jambo said: Aye well l, good for them. Not worthy of a documentary on the bbc, especially when the rest of it is just stuff we've already seen or know. Disagree, of course they are worthy to feature the documentary. Just a shame their bits were thrown together with the rest of the footage without much real context or solid narrative. There is many stories to be told about Hearts over the last 1-2 years but they've done a pretty poor job of doing that. Maybe to the neutral it wasn't so bad, but I had higher expectations of the production! Seemed to flow a lot less than the Fort William FC documentary to me.

SectionDJambo Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 2 minutes ago, SectionFJambo said: That was like satire. Sadly the only person who seemed remotely bothered about playing for the club or winning was the young girl. Locke is hilarious but what exactly is his role at the club 😀 I think they showed what Gary Locke does at the club. He’s employed as club ambassador and, although he seemingly speaks better German than English, he looks to have a lot of enthusiasm in his role. I could well imagine him being very good with the hospitality customers. Always talks the club up, unlike 2 or 3 other previous players who are regarded as big Hearts men. Looks to be an upbeat presence around the club. Certainly better than being a “weary Willie”. I think Hearts would be struggling to find a better person for his current role.

Hungry hippo Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 From the clubs perspective we should probably be glad it isn't too revealing. For a neutral viewer though there is a real lack of personalities and insight compared to other documentaries. I probably wouldn't watch a second episode if it was about another team. Still was interested but purely because it's our club. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the documentary team would have been crucified if they'd focused on a team playing shit one season - which some on here seem to want them to do - instead of the impact of a global pandemic. At least one team plays like shit every season. That's not a story. How last season ended is the story so hopefully we'll get some insight into how it all went down from our perspective.

It probably should have been a 12 parter. That's the problem a 12 parter would have been needed to cover everything. What is it with supposed Hearts fans ?
