Very well made documentary indeed, and that's from someone who has also read Vulcan 607 by Rowland White which the TV adaptation was no doubt heavily based on. I can't recommend this book highly enough - very well written and absolutely fascinating.
It is true, the effectiveness of the raids are debated - there were 6 in total, I believe, not just the 1 the TV film showed. Sharkey Ward flew Sea Harriers over the Falklands and is hugely critical over the whole Vulcan operation in his book Sea Harrier over the Falklands. Ward is certainly opinionated and hard to warm to, but his book is equally fascinating and well worth a read.
