BBC TV is turning into a bit of a joke. They have hardly any sport left, unless you count some darts and snooker. No boxing, no cricket, no F1/motor sport, no golf and only recorded highlights of PL.
And now they lose their two most popular programmes inside a year. First Top Gear, now GBBO. A someone said, how can the BBC not have a stake in a show they've developed into a massive success. Someone in the contract dept has badly fucked up.

I tell you what's a bit rich. Alan Sugar putting his two penneth in calling the production company "Greedy and Disloyal" in their behaviour over this.
Yes, because Alan Sugar never took a deal based on profit did he?
Fucking bell-end.

I'm surprised the BBC haven't blamed losing it on Brexit, they manage to shoe - horn that into everything else

Agreed.
Too many people putting their oar in at the Beeb and wanting their say about how the money is spent.

On a different note, the BBC are on a hiding to nothing with bidding for programmes, they have the public and the government on their backs, and have to go into negotiations with one hand tied behind their back. They are in no man's land, they need to abandon the licence fee and advertise or slowly sink in to oblivion

Some love football others love baking why is that so difficult to understand, everyone has a passion for something.
People need to cook don't they?

I find it one of the most refreshing thing about British culture that something like this has such a following.
Baking has long been about building communities, starting in homes and families and moving beyond. I have great memories of baking, smells etc from both my mother and my grandmother.
My wife does it for Christmas and other times for our friends. She enjoys learning new skills, its a hobby and pastime.
It is not my favourite show, even among cooking shows but I will watch during supper once a week. Fivetide has it partly right, its not anything super exciting or challenging but not everything has to be all the time because it has other benefits. And it is the equivalent of sport for some people.
If that does not resonate with you, life goes on. And this is great news because it is not longer coming out of your license fee.
I should be fine with it as long as Jimmy Carr isn't the host.

Spot on FIvetide.
It does throw up some pointed Qs about the BBC though. And what it is "for".
Whittingdale (whatever his name was, former culture secretary with that dominatrix "companion") said it was EXACTLY the type of show the BBC should be making. Yet move to C4 shows they weren't "making it", really just broadcasting it. So it's fair game they've lost it, I suppose.
The BBC don't actually "make" much at all, in headline terms. They buy in.
It'll go tits up if a) Berry and Hollywanker don't go with it. b) They try and change it, even if they do go. Frankly, it's probably doomed anywhere but the BBC. Be CAREFUL what you wish for.
Still many of audience's age won't watch it anyway on C4. Many seem to think C4 is still all swearing and pinko lesbian outrage. (My mum, for one).
Ironically, prob half of Bake audience don't even pay license fee as they are OAPs so cannot complain. BBC is peddling programmes for the idle rich!!
10 Chris Evans salaries would have let the BBC pay it. That would have been a win-win, surely?
I don't care, never watched it. Can't bear talent shows focussing on mundane talents. We're surely not far from All Celebrity Bathroom Grouter.
I prefer the BBC to make decent drama. Am enjoying One Of Us. That's an outside production company too. Thought Versailles (BBC co-production) was good. But I'm obviously MASSIVELY gay.
(yes, I'm bored.)
