First Contact? - should we? - shouldn't we?

This is for those of you interested in anthropology (the study of man), and missed the BBC4 production about the ethics of making contact with remote and uncontacted tribes around the world.

The video, split into six parts, is about ethnotourism (tribal tourism) and takes place in New Guinea. It is a sort of safari where the tourist is taken to remote forest locations to make first contact with previously uncontacted tribes. Here we are introduced to one tour operator and follow him on one of his expeditions.
