War Horses

Last night's Panorama - the first under Ceri Thomas' substantive editorship - was a difficult watch. An indie production from Jamie Doran's Clover, it used an Afghan journalist to report from "Inside The Taliban".  2.1m (9.1%) watched, according to overnight ratings. That's against an average of 2.3m for Panorama across 2013.

Meanwhile, Newsnight kicked off the week with a worthy but dull report and discussion on the NHS funding shortfall. This follows last week's arcane but "important" discussion on secular stagnation. Newsnight - Anything Can Happen. But perhaps not an improvement in the ratings.
