Mark Collett, then 22 and positioned as the BNP's new media-friendly face, is the subject of a six-month Channel 4 Dispatches investigation that films him on camera admiring Adolf Hitler, calling for the expulsion of non-white immigrants, and blaming Jews for Britain's problems. The crew follows Collett and other young members of the British National Party's youth wing at meetings and events, catching footage of racist remarks and physical aggression alongside the polished, camera-ready persona the party wanted on display. Interviews with other young recruits show similar views repeated almost verbatim, suggesting a coached message rather than isolated opinion, and the film links the BNP's youth strategy to the concurrent rise of Germany's National Democratic Party, framing Britain's far right as part of a wider European pattern. The contrast the film keeps returning to is between the BNP's rebranded, non-racist public image of the early 2000s and what its own members say when they think the cameras are just recording, not judging. The film went on to win the BAFTA for Best Current Affairs.
