jmothecat Posted September 13, 2016 Share Posted September 13, 2016 I'm also a fan. Think they work well together.With absolutely no reasoning behind this, I reckon one of Paul/Mary will go and one will stay. My prediction: Paul will go to C4, Mary won't. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BallochSonsFan Posted September 13, 2016 Share Posted September 13, 2016 Mel and Sue help make the programme work. Just the right amount of innuendo. Just the right amount of friendly chat. Just the right amount of sympathy when it goes wrong. Justin Lee Collins and Alan Carr simply won't work. The show works now because it's part nostalgia and part gentle whimsy. The rumoured new presenters can't do gentle charm. Carr doesn't do subtle and Collins is a creepy inbred weirdo with a history of intimidating former partners. Bake Off was a gamble. Moving it to prime time BBC 1 was also a massive risk. The BBC invested time and money in the show and were willing to pay £15million a year for continued rights. That it was short by £10million is shocking. It's shameful profiteering from the production company. The show format may be down to the producers but a big part of it's success is down to the support that the BBC has given it since deciding to take up the rights to that first series. I give it 2 years on C4 and it'll be gone. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

well fan for life Posted September 14, 2016 Share Posted September 14, 2016 Mel & Sue gone. Paul & Mary gone. Channel 4 have paid £25 million for a marquee in the countryside. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PrestersKTID Posted September 14, 2016 Share Posted September 14, 2016 Hopefully the production company will do a Uturn and go back to BBC, more likely if the faces of the show aren't involved. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
