LONDON - Fans of BBC expressed their shock and anger on social media after the broadcasting corporation admitted in a statement last week that scenes from its documentary series Human Planet were staged by the camera crew.

An episode of the television documentary Human Planet depicted the life of the Korowai people of Papua New Guinea and shot scenes of tribesmen moving into a treehouse. The BBC admitted that "the portrayal of the tribe moving into the treehouse as a real home is not accurate."

Actually, during the making of BBC's upcoming documentary series, a member of the tribe talked about how they have built high tree houses for the benefit of overseas program makers.
