I like Matt Forde but that show was flabby. There's probably a tight half-hour hiding somewhere in there but I daresay they'll keep going at an hour because it's dirt-cheap to make and more lucrative with more ad slots to sell. It wasn't terrible but it wasn't great either. Brigstocke's old show on BBC4 was a much better version of what he was trying to do last night.

Channel 4 have gone out to Paul and Mary's agents with huge offers, even more than what was quoted last night.
Paul's agent seems to be more Keen than Mary's. The BBC have offered less money but a better contract including a guaranteed amount of projects (of any kind) per year and a primetime slot featuring potentially the Bake Off team, if Mel and Sue agree. Channel 4 are offering more money and input into Bake Off, but they're really desperate now as quite a few other people they've approached as potential judges have turned them down. ![]() Blimey, C4 are really panicking now. I imagine Paul will eventually cave, not sure about Mary. |

Brilliant rating again for GBBO - its numbers on Channel 4 will be light years from that. It was a great show last night, really enjoyed it.

Does this one tweet suggest Paul Hollywood's intentions? Seems to be quite loyal to Love Productions doesn't he?

According to The Mirror, "likely contenders for the wish-list of household name hosts are Jack Whitehall, Dawn French and Jennifer Saunders, Stephen Fry, David Walliams and Sarah Millican.
"Big name actors such as Olivia Colman and David Tennant, pop stars and sporting heroes could also be approached. |

I think DCI Banks will be ITV's next cancellation. I wonder why it has suddenly lost half it's usual audience.
This is the type of Police procederal on ITV that you can firmly put into the bracket of 'bland'. If there's nothing else on you'd watch it, but any sort of competition and it falters. |

I don't think its a coincidence that Our Girl rose 400k or so exactly as much as Bake-Off week-on-week.

Might be weeks before P&M announce then. Could Hollywood leverage the fee to double figures? £10m apiece or is it already there? |

Great rating for Can't Pay, and Our Girl increasing can only be a good sign.

So it was all bollocks then? All the "Mary Berry will only stay on Bake off if Mel and Sue stay" "We will only do it if it stays on the BBC" gumph.

‘They spend a huge amount of time together over the course of filming, and outside that as well. But they’re at least listening to the proposition that Channel 4 are offering them, rather than just blindly ruling it out like Mel and Sue.’
Bit of a dig there, perhaps in response to "we're not going with the dough" from M&S? I wonder if that was sanctioned by P&M as they seemingly attempt to secure a humongous payday? I know.........."a source" more often than not means made-up BS but I guess time will tell. |

Yes excellent rating for Can't Pay. 2m is fantastic. Clearly some of the GBBO audience looking for something to watch.

I wouldn't blame Paul & Mary for staying with the show. Why should they give up a show they clearly love doing just because it has moved channels? Regardless of the pay packet (which I'm sure they'll consider, they'd be idiots not to), if they enjoy doing it then why not carry on?
Plus, surely they'd just be depriving millions of fans of the show they love? Mel & Sue already have done in order to make a statement, which was all very noble of them but ultimately whether they agree with what's happened or not, the show could have continued in pretty much the exact same form for the millions of fans it has, had they not left. For that reason I wouldn't blame Paul & Mary for moving with it. I can see the arguments for not moving and taking a BBC deal as well, but I don't think it makes them awful people (as some on here seem to be making out) if they decide to stay with the show. |

As usual the RadioTimes is reporting rubbish.
Jay Hunt *has* blacklisted Mel and Sue from Channel 4 projects. I can't say the exact wording or anything but it's obvious from what has been said to people in the industry that if you pitch a show with Mel and Sue as potential hosts, Channel 4 won't bite. Paul is open to offers more than Mary, although her agent is at least taking the offers. Mary is said to be very loyal to the BBC but Paul is thinking about wanting to stick with Bake Off regardless of the channel. He's also been told to mention that he actually works for Love Productions and not the BBC, just in case he goes to Channel 4, he can spin it that he had no choice, despite this being untrue. The offers on the table are staggering. Mary has been offered a new series on primetime BBC1, Paul too. Paul on Top Gear has been floated, along with the BBC mentioning they want Paul to be their next Gregg Wallace - moving more into documentaries and stuff instead of just cooking. |
