Challenger - go for launch

Is the BBC just filling the post-Christmas wasteland with anything that
comes to hand, or are they planning saturation coverage of the
anniversary to well beyond the point of boredom?
How else to explain the scheduling of "Challenger - go for launch" - a
five-year-old documentary being shown on BBC2 at 1840 tonight, three
weeks before the 20th anniversary of the accident?

Yes, I watched that, the lines at the end were somewhat tragi-comic,
something along the lines of:
"lessons were learned, and now, 15 years after the accident, the Shuttle
is now performing regular space trips with over 100 succesful missions."
