But they cannot judge a bake - just like Alesha D could not judge a dance (and boy did it show).
The winner knows how to bake and knows what tastes nice. I'm not sure what makes a good critic. Was Jonathan Ross capable of critiquing films? Nina Myskow used to judge acts. Piers Morgan? Hasselhoff? The irony is people didn't like Gary Barlow but he's eminently qualified. |

Wentworth Prison concluded its fourth season with a consolidated audience of 779,000, a new high since the move to 5Star.
Season 4 Breakdown S4 / Ep4 Screw Lover: 0.42m S4 / Ep5 Love and Hate: 0.61m S4 / Ep6 Divide and Conquer: 0.66m S4 / Ep7 Panic Button: 0.54m S4 / Ep8 Plan Bea: 0.61m S4 / Ep9 Afterlife: 0.73m S4 / Ep10 Smitten: 0.68m S4 / Ep11 Eleventh Hour: 0.68m S4 / Ep12 Seeing Red: 0.78m Given its last few episodes on C5 consolidated to about 1m inc. +1, that's roughly a 63% conversion rate on average and closer to 80% towards the end, surely one of the most successful channel switches of all-time. |

While the Beeb weren't up for matching the 25m a year for the format I daresay, at this point, they would match C4's money for P&M unless it got silly. I can't see why they wouldn't equal the £350k per year it's been reported Hunt is offering.
Anyway, by the sounds of it, it sounds like a done deal with Channel 4. |

Would they, what with all the scrutiny BBC stars' pay is under at the moment?
Lineker's pay makes £350k look like pocket change. Anyway, if paying that reunited P&M and M&S in a baking show it'd look like the bargain of the decade. |

He could easily ruin his career staying at the BBC. Chris Evans may never recover from Top Gear. Maybe the safest option is to stick with the show that you can do. |

Apparently the £500k figure was BS. Industry types say more like £250k making the £350k C4 are offering a decent rise. Almost certainly by this time the figure is in excess of that though as Hollywood holds all the cards now and is bound to be squeezing the pips out of Hunt.

He has to be careful though, he could end up with nobody. Unlikely. I would laugh if Paul or Mary signed up for a new show on ITV. Simon Cowell on the phone for you, Mary..... |

It's getting 1.5m viewers. They might as well show Benny Hill or Rising Damp. It'd get more viewers and probably cost the same. YBF is dead air to what follows.

If Paul does go on his tod to Channel 4 I do not think it will make much difference to the ratings like it might have done if one of the others had too.
But he will be seen as a traitor and money grabber by some of the audience if he alone goes. And if the BBC replace him and create a new cookery show around the other three then it will still win the battle long term. Can see why Channel 4 are desperate to get someone to stay, but I suspect it really will not matter much to how well or badly the show does for them. He is probably not the big draw or key element of the success that he might think he is. Bake Off is the four of them, but if it had to be part of the team only he will add the least viewers than any of the other three would and at some point it would have been better all round if Channel 4 had launched an all new show and the BBC had countered with an all new show as well with the four old presenters. My bet is Paul will regret this move if he makes it as it will dilute both Bake Off and whatever new show the BBC create and he will get the blame. As for those Hooten and the Lady catch up figures - doubling the audience is very good. Especially if (as someone posted earlier) viewers who watched before the episode was transmitted are not included. Many will have done that just as we did. Probably over a million with that added. |

YBF is much cheaper than repeating ancient comedies since they don't need to pay repeat fees.
Put Go For It as 6pm and something at 7 and you never know. |

But it's not getting any viewers and often has no advertising. It may be cheap but you might as well put on Oracle pages if it isn't generating any revenue. Im sure Harry Hill is being paid.

Push Strictly back to 6.10 on the Saturday, and have XF start at 8.15. And have the Strictly results at 6.45, both problems solved!

ITV put promos for the 6pm slots to have more ads for the big hitters, they only have so many ad minutes they can use between 6-10pm
