Indeed. It will be fully commercialised and Channel 4d. It will lose all the things viewers enjoy about it. It will lose it's charm, humour and 'BBC feel'. Love have totally shot themselves in the foot never-mind mugging off licence fee payers.
It may surprise us all, it may be better on ch4 than it is on BBC, but you will not see it as you do not watch commercial channels, so you keep telling us. Anyway, what is the BBc feel? BBC to me is a bit snobbyinsh to be honest, always have been. |

I thought you did not agree with public BBc money being spent on private companies, so by Bake off going to another channel, there will be less BBC licence fee going to a private company.

Currently, the BBC is required to commission 10% of programming from independent producers, with a further 10% open to competition between the BBC’s in-house production arm and independent suppliers. https://www.theguardian.com/media/20...utsource-shows
Under director general Tony Hall’s compare and compete strategy this is proposed to be dramatically increased to 60% open to full competition during the first six years of the BBC’s new charter. |

Wasn't there a requirement that the BBC outsource at least a certain percentage of programme production anyway? So LF money will always be flowing to private companies.

I was riled and told to stop bickering with Ash, looking back it was sound advice. Sorry to those who I disappointed in carrying on. I'm really trying hard not to this time.

...indeed...moving to 100% (excluding news and current affairs) by the end of the next charter period. I don't like it one bit. I don't want the BBC to end up like Channel 4, a publisher-broadcaster only. The BBC is the engine which drives our creativity. I want that to remain the case.

I will stop bickering with you too. I will stop all interaction with you going forward.
I'm a great fan of the GBBO and I was greatly disappointed that the BBC lost it, had it been to a commercial broadcaster I would have understood the decision but I don't think two public broadcasters should be competing with each other. It won't stop me watching it on CH4 however, I will give it a chance and only after a few shows and is bedded down I'll judge whether to continue. You constantly judge everything against the BBC and it does seem that you are only too willing to show incredible bias against any other broadcaster, Pay TV or streaming service that offers brilliant shows that millions enjoy. |

Really surpised that the BBC has given the Bake Off primetime Christmas Day slot, I would dump it on BBC Two.

Don't worry unduly - BBC Studios will be part of that mix.

I suspect they will be squeezed out by the competition eventually.

http://www.radiotimes.com/news/2016-...off-presenters She was linked with the reinvention of The Generation Game, never occurred. She is linked with Strictly, she loves it, but too busy. So then why can she find time to do this, and why? Like Chris Evans taking over Top Gear, she gets the blame when 15 million become 3 million. |

Whilst the RT is typically correct, I do not accept this one. Miranda has been busy in Hollywood, she was too busy for Call the Midwife, but said she wanted to do it.

That's their problem, many will not want to be associated with a failure. A really BIG name, much bigger than Miranda, could perhaps risk it and someone right down at the bottom might take a risk but those in the middle could find their career damaged.

a couple of months back, I was in a garden centre, and there was an entire kitchens worth of Paul Hollywood branded goods, on the one hand that is why he is staying on the show, because he needs a profile to sell those, but on the other people dont like him so much now, when Mary Berry and Jamie Oliver have similar stuff out I dont see him selling them, its a double edged sword for him really.

I definitely think he's a lot less popular than Berry but because of GBBO the press have been more lenient with him than would otherwise have been the case, even when he briefly ran off with his American Co-presenter. Not sure they'll be so kind in future.
