Smoggie Queens shows how far BBC comedy has fallen, says Steven Tucker. Let's be honest, there's only one reason the corporation made this awful TV programme, and it's certainly not because it's funny.

- Those Who Dance:(50mins) 2007 documentary showing how life for the Ogoni people has been effected on the Niger Delta by the presence of Shell. This is compared with people living off the land in Rossport, and how they are struggling to resist the threat of destruction of this way of life.

- The Case Against Shell:(8mins) 2009 promo for the WiwaVsShell trial with interviews from journalists and human rights lawyers on the need for accountability from Royal Dutch Shell with regard to their blatant collusion with the Nigerian Military in the oppression of the MOSOP movement in Ogoniland, and the murder of Ken Saro-Wiwa.

Can you also please remind people about the horrific murders in peru that happened last friday, world environmental day. Thursday 11th (the day after your screenings) a general strike has been called in Peru, and the indegenous go back to holding their roads in face of destruction by OIL companies, or sooner (hopefully not) by State forces...

Their fight is Rossport´s fight, is everyones fight.

Not sure what we can do, all suggestions welcome. 50+ dead there, many more missing, reports of police burning and dumping bodies to reduce numbers, Peru's Minister of Women and member of the Peru cabinet has resigned over government actions..
