Let’s talk about BBC

[icowden]

Apparently Tom Skinner is looking to do a Trump and sue the BBC claiming he was kicked out due to rigged voting. I’d have thought all the BBC will have to do to win the case is show footage of him ‘dancing’. To be honest, I suspect there’s another reason he wasn’t around for the final…

Yes, no-one outside of a select few people on social media knew who the heck he was other than someone not particularly likeable who had taken not being able to dance to the next level.

I'd prefer the BBC to be properly ring fenced and independent of Government.

There needs to be some oversight if the Government are handing them money though.

I do think that sometimes the people wirting BBC News are having too much fun:

Even if I didn't watch anything on the BBC, I still think it should be funded to benefit society.

Except Strictly.

But that oversight should not include the board becoming a fifth column for a hostile foreign power.

I know that the Yanks don’t celebrate Boxing Day, but it’s the Christmas period, right now.

Oh and just a couple of weeks ago, Celebrity Traitors broke the record for viewers of a non sporting event.

Go Grinch someplace else.

He's just a fan of crappy adverts.

The BBC is currently prevented from making all its old shows available on iPlayer. In the event the playing field was levelled that restriction would go.

Would be a bit of a dead cat bounce though wouldn't it. Short term spike in people watching Blackadder.

Yes Minister/Yes Prime Minister too.
Then people would realise that little has changed in Westminster other than the outward presentation.

If they did that it would kill off Dave!

MAGAandy would be all over Love Thy Neighbour and Till Death Us Do Part, the licence fee would be well worth having a voice to rally around.
