The BBC has commissioned a two-part documentary on JK Rowling — airing on BBC Two, BBC Scotland, and iPlayer — examining her “polarising” legacy, with episode two focused specifically on her stance on gender identity and feminism. Rowling was not asked to participate. The series draws on archive material and interviews with others who have worked with or against her. Jon Del Arroz breaks down why a taxpayer-funded state broadcaster producing an unauthorized documentary targeting a private citizen over her political views is a chilling story — and what it signals about the state of free speech in Britain.
