Sometimes, it works out well for the viewers.  "We are at the Iranian embassy..."

 

 

But generally, I agree that it is pointless to film cars skidding on a snowy road, or watch ministers entering 10 Downing Street.

What happens when you take small children away from there parents and send them to a single sex boarding school? 
 

Whatever you did don’t let them near the levers of power. Oh dear too late.

Three if my mates went to very expensive boarding schools. One has been fired from at least four jobs. One has bankrupted two businesses and a third soon most likely. The other one ended up selling cocaine so I then avoided him (I don't like drugs). A couple years later i heard he died of a heroin overdose. 

Ive also worked with several privately educated people who were mostly utterly hopeless. 

If I could afford to send my kids to private school, I wouldn't.
