Shoot The Messenger follows one (black) man's painful journey towards
self-discovery. On the way he finds both his own attitudes and the
expectations of his community challenged.

Excellent programme - thought provoking and will most surely prompt
debate that is much needed.

There's a programme on our black guests tonight which has got the PC
crowd frothing at the mouth :

Shoot The Messenger
Wednesday 30th August, 9pm, BBC TWO
http://www.bbc.co.uk/drama/shootthemessenger/

David Oyelowo (Spooks) stars in a brave and provocative drama by Sharon
Foster (Babyfather).

Shoot The Messenger follows one (black) man's painful journey towards
self-discovery. On the way he finds both his own attitudes and the
expectations of his community challenged.

Joe (David Oyelowo) is a teacher with a mission. He's determined to
save the black youngsters at his school from a life of gangs, crime and
underachievement - whether they like it or not.

But when a seemingly minor incident rapidly escalates out of control
and he loses his job, he turns against his own community.

He quickly descends into madness and hits rock bottom, before realising
he has a lot to learn about love, understanding and a different way of
seeing his world.
