Question (spoilers for Ep 4-5)


When they had the witness holed up at the hotel why did they wait for Appoline to get back to film another interview?
Wouldn't it have been easier to get another crew in, or even for Gendre to interview him on his phone and email it to Simon, and why even use film when they were in Africa rather than use a digital video camera and then upload it to the cloud?
That just seemed like a plot contrivance to me, unless I missed something.

Ir was, I think, her "crusade" to start with. She insisted in going to Mali, fiercely beleiveing that the French should be made aware of the truth, so they would not want to exclude her, but I agree that a copy of the original interview could/should have been sent to Paris separately.

I understand her motivation, but the fact remains that she or Gendre could/should have recorded the interview digitally and made a quick and dirty edit to send to Simon, or that Gendre could have done a quick interview on his phone at the hotel.
It doesn't make sense to me so reduces my rating from an 7 to a 6, not that anyone cares what I think. :)
