A brilliant promo for The Great British Bake Off just now during Match of the Day. Fantastic cross-promotional opportunity for the show during a high profile England game. The promo said it's starting in the summer.

Lots of criticism of that on social media
Doesn't really tell us anything we didn't already know, probably just starting in August like the previous series. Week after Commonwealth Games maybe? (Edit: Actually, that might be a week or two too early.)
Nothing but praise on my timeline

End of August is still summer though so I done think it tells us much.

I thought it was hilarious! Good bit of promotion there

If that had been an XF promo Samuel would have demanded a full ofcom inquiry

It's like The Olympics again. BBC1 using it to promote upcoming programmes.

Well the BBC have made a big mistake giving Phil Neville such a prominent position,not heard a positive comment about him yet,they have also put England scoring on board,so they do make mistakes as well!

I'm willing to give him a chance. Early days for him but he's not a Gary Neville.
He does fit well in with BBC vanilla style of coverage. Harmless controversy free bland talking head

Yeah he's not improved. Very strange decision and by the BBC. No doubt a big audience will question what the hell the thinking was giving him the big game
The content isn't bad, the delivery is just mind numbing. Nerves or not, plenty of BBC talent about. I almost miss Lawro
ITV will be delighted with this outcome
I imagine the audience has dropped by a good few million in the past half hour or so. Paint drying might be more rewarding.
