>The Sunday night U.K. debut of BBC's revamped Top Gear, hosted by British media personality Chris Evans, Matt LeBlanc and three others, drew an average audience of 4.3 million, according to overnight data.
>"#TopGear returned to BBC2 with a new lineup and a healthy 4.3m/22.6% from 8pm," tweeted ratings analysis firm overnights.tv. One observer noted that this was the lowest overnight ratings for a season debut of the show in a decade.
>While other ratings tweets also mentioned the 4.3 million figure, rounded down from 4.34 million, the BBC itself cited an average audience of 4.4 million. The BBC also highlighted that Top Gear was the "biggest show at 8 p.m.," citing as its nearest rival the British Soap Awards on ITV, which were watched by an average of 3.9 million people.

What went wrong?
>>70218228
>They didn't even get the token "It's new, let's watch the debut and see what it's like" boost in ratings
That's fucking depressing
>>70218228
Bravo LeBlanc fuck. Looking forward to seeing you act in nothing.
>Chris Evans
>>70218363
There's still Ash Versus Evil Dead Season 2
JUST
>Chris Evans is a cunt who is scripted to not be a cunt
>Matt Le'blanc is a sitcom actor who can't ad lib
>The new producers can't provide scripts to accommodate both
I'm not surprised
>>70218407
What? Has he been casted for Season 2? I can't see him in that...
>>70218228
They didn't have Clarkson or May.
>>70218228
I thought that with morbid curiosity they'd get very high ratings.
That's actually really surprising.
>>70218715
Piracy!
That's what happens when you remove the reason to watch a show. Top Gear wasn't a show about cars, that was just the "setup". It was a lads banter show. A good friend simulator.
>>70218345
I imagine they did, but the number of old fans who just didn't even bother far outweighed them.
The week 2 stats are going to be the fun ones, I'm predicting less than a million viewers.
>>70218781
this
the new top gear is shit, I'm not even bothering watching it.
>>70218507
Agree about LeBlanc. He comes across like an OK guy, but not someone who's quick or charismatic on his feet, only when reading lines (although that's still 90% of what TopGear ever was)
>>70218781
This. It was a show you could watch with a beer in your hand where you'd laugh and relax.
>>70218983
I actually though Leblanc was charismatic and he sounded by far the least scripted of them all
I would watch him just dicking around
>>70218542the joke is he looks like Bruce Campbell now
when will the inevitable friends top gear reunion happen? they could get schwimmer and the other guy I reckon.
>Hearing Chris Evans say "IN THE WORLD"
I almost threw up
>>70218781
>A good friend simulator.

As a guy who never watched Clarkson Top Gear where should I start? I could use some british lads shit talking each other about cars. Do I just start with the best-of clips?
>>70219245
watch all the specials. they are goat.
then start with the show s4 onwards
>>70219245
Yes you should
The first 5/6 seasons arn't that good but past that its amazing
>>70219245
I started watching recently and the specials are hilarious.
>>70219245
Vietnam Special
anyone have a link to the episode? interested in seeing it myself.
>>70219554

>>70218781
It was three funny lads doing funny lad things in cars. They got rid of everything except the cars.

>>70218781
This.
It was also non-pc which nowadays people find refreshing and fun.
There was some reporter back in Finland going through Jeremy Clarkson quotes from the show and was getting really asspained. Then the "journalist" went on a tirade how that kind of behaviour is not acceptable and Clarkson is obviously a fucking asshole and got what he deserved for being a old remnant of patriarchy.
>>70219669
you wouldn't steal a car?
>>70219723
I wonder what turned everyone into massive vaginas somewhere around 2010 or so.
You never really heard this shit, certainly not at a mainstream level, before then.
Leblancs Nomad segment was actually decent
>>70218781
My wife loved it because it was silly. It was a show we could always agree on, even though she doesn't like shows about cars.
>>70219808
Honestly they should have given LeBlanc his own show, it was the dude's first time hosting anything like this and he still somehow made it comfy as fuck even with Evans looming over him like a bad smell
>>70219739
Chris Evans would absolutely steal a car show though.
>>70219609
>>70219571
never had to get around iplayer before, what would you all recommend? expatshiled? identity cloaker?
>>70219808
The "gag" with him running from the paparazzi made no sense. The paparazzi is after Matt LeBlanc???
>It was a bit like when you go for forced drinks with work colleagues you don't particularly know/like and end up spending the evening having stilted conversations predominantly about work in order to fill the silence
wew
>>70219855
My 50 year old Canadian mother likes watching Top Gear (as well as May's drinking show). She has negative interest in cars.
They should have found people who had N existing friendship, rather than just throwing a variety mix into the pit and hoping they generate a rapport.
>>70219859
Being English helps
>That entirely scripted celebrity segment
>>70219865
Eh i didn't hate it
Leblanc sold me on it he was funny, lots of what he said felt natural and not like he was just reading from a script
Depressed that Chris Harris stopped releasing his GOAT content to join this sinking ship and he wasn't even in the debut.
Chris Evans shit as always.
>>70219856
Agree.
Biggest plummet in viewers ever.
Like a fucking cliff.
>>70218877
im betting on 1.9
>>70219808
It was OK but they have shit writers to be honest. The jokes were fucking horrible and I can't tell if he was bad at delivering them or not because nobody could deliver them well.>>70219987
>>70220033
i dont think it was bad enough to fall off a cliff i am expecting 4ish next week and it will keep dropping from there
The crowd was being told what to do right?
All the YAYYYYYYYYY and AWWWWWWWW felt so forced
>>70220209
I'm not sure because there were some awkward silences in parts.
>mfw everything you love in life will be ruined by a bunch of social justice harpies who are offended by everything

>While other ratings tweets also mentioned the 4.3 million figure, rounded down from 4.34 million, the BBC itself cited an average audience of 4.4 million.
Desperation. Fuck the BBC. (No pun intended)
>>70220151
It was bad enough that it's not a "Must watch it right away" show, so overnight ratings will tank, overall ratings will bleed slowly.
Leblanc was absolutely fine i thought, Chris Evans is killing the fucking show
>>70220131
The jokes were mainly bad because everything is pushed through a cheese cloth - anything that might hurt fee fees gets cut.
>>70220306
This tbqf
Ok so i just finished watching the episode and heres my two cents i guess
Pros
>Leblanc was half decent and given someone better to bounce off could be pretty good
>Still looked fantastic, great shots/music as usual
>Stig
Cons
>Chris Evans being Chris Evans doing an impression of Clarkson
>Dead crowd clearly being told what to do. When to cheer and what not
>No main third host for Leblanc and Evans to work with making a lot of scenes between just the two of them awkward
>Unfunny jokes
>>70220339
>The jokes were mainly bad because everything is pushed through a cheese cloth - anything that might hurt fee fees gets cut.
This. Design by committee is always a bad fucking idea. With comedy it's absolute and certain death, there is no room for feelings based PC crap in comedy.

>Top Gear wasn't a show about cars
What planet are you from?
>>70220306
>this
Joey was great but Chris Evans sucked ass. Maybe he really is like that but everything he did/said felt so fucking forced and fake.
They replaced the white male lads with a team of multicultural token people who wont offend you.

otherwise wait about a week and watch it on youtube thanks to spineless bbc worldwide not fiving a fuck about take downs outside uk showing americans things for free that we can't even fuckign pay for because herp derp copyright
>>70220456
Why are they dressed like that? Sad.
>>70220460
I'm a /pol/ack but I think people are over emphasising the multicultural thing. There's a black fella on extra and Chris Harris has some Caribbean heritage or something and that's about it. The problem is that they are trying to sanitise a format that only worked so well because it wasn't sanitised. The brit/yank section is a perfect example of what's wrong with this new show. It didn't work at all because you can't do safe banter, it's always going to be verging on offense.
>>70220460
Being white and male is shameful. You need to feel SHAME. By the way, white isn't even a fucking culture! Except when it comes to you doing things that hurt other races, then white people are homogeneous and all the hundreds of different cultures no longer exist! The only good white man is a dead white man.
can the bbc shill REEEEEEEEEEEEEEing about the show being about cars go to sleep already, no one is falling for it.
Making the show the libtard diversity hour isnt entertaining when every show is the libtard diversity hour.

The multicultural thing isn't a problem in of itself. However, it's a good visual indicator of all the other shit you mentioned. It's never a big shocker when a show with a "quota cast" fails to have any edge, take any risks or do anything offensive.
>>70220729
I got into Top Gear late and a spent a night watching all of their major overseas specials and it was one of the best viewing experiences of my life, my sides were sore the next morning I'd laughed so much

Most people are not that delusional.
>>70220591

>>70220640

>>70220828
They are fucking amazing but the reason why they are amazing is that they are rare.
Will they have the Ghostbusters girls as special guests soon?
>>70220881
I am the people and I fantasized about being friends with them every time I was watching the show and most of the time while I wasn't watching the show.
I am the people, so who are you to tell me what people do and don't do? A lot of people watched the show to have them as friends, that's a fact.

But it's not really multiculti is it? Aside from the woman the only two ethnics are relegated to a sideshow.
There were the curries on an old vauxhall which was a bit odd though.
It's clearly trying to be safe but it's not the most offensive casting I've ever seen by the BBC on the diversity side of things.
>>70220727
>Don't speak to me or my wife's thread ever again
Who watches this PC-crap? It is clearly anti-white. It's shown on BBC. Wake up people.
I don't even think it's /pol/ approved.
Wasn't there some shit about Chris Evans being a huge douche to the people watching them drive cars outside?
Didn't he also puke while driving? Come on BBC.
I feel really bad for Chris Harris because hes a really cool guy
>>70220898
That's why I mentioned it, it wasn't a year between for me, it was all in a row
Anyway I think the majority of the bits are going to be the more lowkey stuff like car/bike/public transport race and blowing shit up, I'm sure they've got a bunch of ideas for scenarios they never got to use because of budget or BBC not allowing it

These people should be ashamed that a glorified car commercial got such ratings in the first place.
Typical BBC cucks being typical BBC cucks couldn't stand a successful show being based around three tory voting white males, so they took the first opportunity they got to destroy it and start again - probably doing a multicultural jig of joy in the boardroom while they were at it. The new one is going to flop hard, precisely because the old one was apologetically un-PC and that's what people liked about it. Chris Evans is also an overpaid cunt, his talent being that he can convince people that he actually has talent while talking loud and fast.

Top Gear was a show WITH cars, not about cars. It was about three friends bantering and having adventures, and it was fucking great.
You can tell because the new show is exactly the same except with the subtraction of those three friends, and now it's completely unwatchable.

No, that is what BARB are saying.
>>70221222
But it is a stunning success to PC culture.
Those people find merit to be extremely offensive. If they can tear down something that was highly-regarded and replace it with something utterly mediocre, then they've achieved a cultural victory.
Their end goal is to create a society where everyone is completely mediocre and has no desire to be anything but that. That is a society that is easiest to control.
The best slaves are the ones with no aspirations to be anything but slaves.

HOW DID ANY OF THIS GET GREENLIT
>>70221145
>>70221207
Except it really doesn't. The BBC's budget isn't dependant on TG being successful. The money it made before was tiny in comparison to its BBC Worldwide income.
I know you're Americans and the concept of how the BBC is funded and operates is completely lost on you, but the BBC is not a commercial broadcaster, it is publicly-funded.
It could cancel TG and not have any serious effect on its operations at all.
It's an excellent microcosm of what's happened to Britain, white males have a great degree of success, are then brought down by a socialist cultural marxist institution and have to leave the country in order to achieve their potential.
>>70221304
>Top Gear was a show WITH cars, not about cars. It was about three friends bantering and having adventures
Really, really no
Just because they had road trips doesn't mean Top Gear stopped being about cars... to suggest that is just delusional
I can't get over how fucking weird you all are, seriously. It is very unhealthy to be this obsessional over some fat arrogant middle aged men that you will never meet. To be entertained by them is fine. To pretend that you are friends with them is exceptionally strange
Perhaps you should all see a doctor, I think that would be the best thing really
>>70221555
really the Tories loving giving a cool billion to BBC
>>70220564
Just because it has cars doesn't mean it's about cars, they're saying it's about the three presenters having top bantz while there are cars present.
Just where exactly on the spectrum are you?
>>70221365
4.4m is overnights.
>>70221555

It's confusing.
>>70221634
Put it this way. Its about cars NOW. The last couple decades it became something other than cars (read: surrogate friends), but now that the original cast is gone, and they got someone from the show friends to be your new surrogate friend, ratings are now at a level moderately more appropriate for a car commercial.
>>70218228
Hey those are good ratings.
>>70221446
>yanks actually think it'll be cancelled.
Lel. If the BBC didn't cancel the last incarnation when it took SIX series to actually get an average over 4.4m, why would they cancel this one when it's opening episode gets 4.4m?
>>70221601
>everyone else is weird
>not me

>>70221716
Not god-tier and not public television. Public television is full of lesbians and liberal arts failures droning on about social issues. It's also horribly PC because they don't actually need people to like it to keep getting shows made.
>>70218228
>>70221757
Fun is a buzzword, though. It's a past tense statement of personal enjoyment. A proper use is "I had fun." But the way marketers use it, "x is fun." is saying "x is [something YOU WILL ENJOY]." Which is total bullshit, as there is no way you, personally, can know if you'll enjoy something till you try it.
So, yes, its a language game and people suck it up.
>You will never be this much of an egomaniacal cretin
>>70221820
ur crazy. BBC at this point should be spun off into different companies
ABC is god-tier one of the last networks that talk about regional affairs make australian content, investigate and report on news msm will never touch and its all because they have no advertising overlords on their back. abc radio is a godsend in the bush. ur out of your mind if you think abc is bad.

Which is why the BBC is one of the best and most recognisable broadcasters and media outlets in the world with a reputation to match. Kek. You Americunts really are a bunch of dopey toxic mega cunts.
I actually enjoyed the first episode, I mean sure it isn't the same as 3 middle aged guys having a go at each other with some cars around but it was still funny in places.
I think most people will shit on it because it doesn't have their LadBible tier presenter Clarkson on it, but we'll see how good "grand tour" (shit name btw) is when it comes out.
>>70221795
Yea, pretty much. Shits basically free to make even if no one was watching. Considering its a glorified paid advertisement.
Evans's didn't come off so cringly scripted and full of manic false enthusiasm on Extra Gear and was much better for it. I think once he's get comfortable just being himself, not some off-brand Clarkson, he'll be OK.
>>70220947

>Was supposed to get eight episodes
>there's only going to be six
woop woop damage control alarm
>>70221771
So why didn't they "sack" him then, rather than defend him?
Fucking thick cunt.
Clarkson has been getting away with shit for years, the BBC have defended him to the hilt Then he assaults a producer and his faggot acolytes cannot understand why they had no option but to bin him
>>70222025
Someone should give her twitter account to Rachel Riley.
>>70221931
Go around the world and ask people the ten best shows ever made.
I'll bet my right arm that not one BBC show makes the list. Chances are all ten shows will be made in America.
Cry your delicious tears, eurotrash.
>>70221793
They are for a Sunday evening in comparison to other shows on at the time.
Not so good for TG though. It was averaging around 6.5m in the last few series.
>>70222013
>Grand Tour
Yea especially if they make it like the specials or their segment(like a mini special) MAN THAT WOULD KICK SOME MAJOR ASS!
Also why would anyone watch Top Gear if not for the stars?!,You can watch any car you want on youtube or other sites so who gives a shit about the cars?!
>all these people who worship a fat middle aged lanklet who's ego is so big he got kicked off what was basically his show.
Clarkson is a twat and part of the cancer called "being a lad", IE an intellectual midget who can on spout shit off the TV in the pub.
>>70221901
if they just got rid of Evans and it was just Leblanc it would be perfectly fine
American television surpassed the brits ages ago.
The wire, the sopranos, OZ, breaking bad, the shield, true detective, etc
>>70219855
>My wife loved it because it was silly.
What about her son? Does he like the new Top Gear?
>>70222105
Come now, Mr. Bean works in every language.
And people would probably say monty pythonI prefer fawlty towers
>>70222054
They can't sack someone and cut the show without proof you fucking plebby cuntstain; not when it's as popular as it was or there would be outcry. They had to make out they were defending him even though they wanted him gone.
>>70222150
>kike leftist bbc shill mad at white lowerclass masculinity
>>70222161
American Top Gear?
>That one guy who really thinks the clarkson era Top Gear was about cars
>>70222161
Remove aging pills + clawing a man to death with finger nails.
And pretend there's only 1 season of true detective.
Rest is great though.
>>70222105
>bbc only makes tv programs
Kek. You've not even refuted anything I've said, you odious fat nigger,
>>70221901
>12% more than the opening episode of the last series
i'm fairly sure that top gear was an obscure show back then
>>70222034
>>70221901
It's just like 2 and a half men: it sucked , it kept the moronic viewers and eventually slowly sinked and got canned.
>>70222221
I agree with you, but all top gear was clarkson era, and the first 25 years were about cars lol.
>>70222164
We're DINKs.
>>70222034
SHOTS FIRED this guy nailed it
>>70222171
Mr Bean premise was played out by American film before talking in movies was a thing.
Monty Python was great, but it and shows like it are rare gems in a sea of stale mediocrity.
Sorry.
>>70220977
curries were setup just for the catering joke.
Multicultural angle was almost every instance of camera shot in the studio, was an over representation of foreigners. And most of the women at the front and center.
In the back you can see all the bored looking blokes.
Generally you know they had to keep stalling every shot in the studio, director comes in - you, yeah you the coloured gentleman, could you come forward for this shot. Okay we need some more women at the front.
etc etc
disgusting.
>>70222105
>I'll bet my right arm that not one BBC show makes the list.
And you'll lose it.
Top Gear 2002-2015 was watched by more people than any US TV show.
>>70222149
>MAN THAT WOULD KICK SOME MAJOR ASS!
What a cringeworthy bit of shit you are, DaShawn.
>>70221555
but the bbc is dependent on how its exports are successful.
It makes a bomb selling the show to the US, nevermind the merchandise.
Outside of the UK, you have to pay in some way to see bbc shows.
Why didn't they get this guy to host Top Gear?
>>70222337
And the superbowl was the most-watched American show of all time.
Still doesn't mean anyone is listing either one on the ten greatest shows of all time list.
>>70222202
>clarkson
>masculine
Lel, he's a rich nonce with a big head and the people who hang on his every word are morons.
I hate the BBC, they're just a propaganda machine for the destruction of Britain at this point, shit like top gear is just to satiate the drooling retards.
>>70222173
>another fat yank shitposting nonsense
What a surprise.
>>70221127
Il just let Milo talk
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3mmWYdonr3Y
>>70222309
But we were naming the top 10 tv shows around the world.
And that you claimed non would be bbc.
Monty Python would be up there, and it's BBC.
IDK why i mentioned my bean, it's british but not BBC.
>>70222332
To be fair women were always moved to the front on the 'old' top gear too, because people always want eye-candy.
>>70222402
Don't know how common they are, at one mall here in Seoul there's a "Top Gear" store (looks like it just sells wildly overpriced jackets and shit)
>>70222034
The BBC always reports on responses (pos. and neg.) to its shows. It's not like Sky or ITV that ignore anything bad.
>>70222280
We're specifically talking about tv programs, fuckface.
Try to keep up. I know it's hard for you, but at least make an effort.
>>70221931
>Which is why the BBC is one of the best and most recognisable broadcasters and media outlets in the world with a reputation to match.
The BBC is riding on a decades old reputation and the ghost of David Attenborough. Now it's all MUH DIVERSITY and Dr. Who bullshi. They're even sticking niggers in their historical dramas, literally cucking their own fucking history.
You guys are Sweden-tier at this point.
>>70222436
Would love to watch that desu. Ramsay is fucking based.
>>70222445
>And the superbowl was the most-watched American show of all time.
No fucker watches ape collide outside of America, you stupid fat cunt.
>>70222386
>cringeworthy bit of shit
You know what?
If you watch current top gear(I watched like 10m) you and your show are a bunch of cringy glasses of diarrhea, I'm just hoping that stupid fucking drama didn't kill a whole show forever that was quite good imho!
If you so cool why do you even post in this thread you alpha wanabe!
>>70222475
yeah i agree, but it never felt as blatant as this time around.
>>70222436
Because he's a chef, not a car
>>70222150
This.
Magnificently put.
Clarkson's "banter" is humour for spastics who lick windows and struggle with basic arithmetic.
>>70218781
Uhhh, racist!!
>>70222467
i wish he'd bum me but he like them big and black ;_;
>>70218228
It's ridiculous how many more people would probably have watched it with Chris fucking Evans being there.
I like LeBlanc, everyone does. NOBODY likes fucking Chris Evans. Nobody.
>>70222436
he could've flipped some excellent burgers mate while reviewing cars
>that random lad in traffic shouting "how youu doin" at Matt
>>70222522
In ten years you won't be able to tell the difference between BBC and Al Jeezera.
Seriously, Britain has fallen to the barbarian invaders. No hope for you remains.
>>70222171
>>70222309
pieces like monthy python laid the ground work for future comedic pieces, which is why people love it so much
if it had been aired today, for the first time, there wouldn't be that many people who would have liked it
which is what separates it from top gear, since there will never be something quite like it even if it had been made today.
nothing can substitute the cock trio.
it will strike a huge blow to comedy, bigger than the death of Robin Williams, when they a transformed into fossils and displayed in a museum in a remote location in the UK
>>70222527
Probably more trouble, and more liable to say the wrong thing, than Clarkson.
>>70222522
>Dr. Who
is/was pure shit
>>70222475
>>70222564
it was equally blatent, the reasoning is different though.
on clarkson gear it was for him to leer at a hottie, or for may to be awkward around them.
>>70222161
>one off bid budget tv shows are great
Wow. If only the BBC could direct its entire budget to tits and dragons like HBO do.
>BBC shills are still in every Top Gear thread
How much are they getting paid to defend this mess? The british people paying the license fee for this shit must be annoyed
>be britsih
>have to have a license for televison
>television is nothing but libtard forced diversity where they stick niggers and women in everything
Its like they are actively trying to get you to not watch
>>70220569
You don't have to idolize May, Hammond, and Clark to like Top Gear.
>>70222436
He knows better
>>70222644
Dr. Who has always been soap-opera tier garbage.
Every awful, pink-haired douchebag I've ever met writes Dr. Who fanfiction.
That show is literal cancer.
>>70222609
Anthony Bourdain made a huge hit out of cooking + exotic travel. Ramsay could do the same for cooking + travel + cars.
>>70222653
>>70222666
>paying the fee
the english people who pay the fee are the same americans who fall for this

>>70222505
>Which is why the BBC is one of the best and most recognisable broadcasters and media outlets in the world with a reputation to match.
You literally have no argument against this at all. Yet you're shitting on the BBC cos it binned Clarkson and upset fat Yank neckbeards.
>>70222604
>I like LeBlanc, everyone does
I don't, I mean he was bearable when he was the dumb idiot with no respect but ever since he got a sense of self importance even while acting, he's just fucking disgusting.Not that he's a good actor to start with, he's more lucky than anything.
>>70222694
Of course not, but you cant say the three wasn't a big part of Top Gear, and a big percentage of people watching was dragged in by them. I honestly know shit about cars, but I can enjoy Top Gear, thats the beauty of it.
>>70222586
Go fuck a blender.
Not that it'll do you any good, you won't touch the sides, the bottom, or figure out how to make the whrblr twirl.
>>70222653
>How much are they getting paid to defend this mess? The british people paying the license fee for this shit must be annoyed
Yeah, a subpar car show is the reason people hate paying for the BBC.
It's got nothing to do with their agenda of killing the british way of life and forcing women and shitskins into everything.
>>70222766
Bourdain is a cunt in real life that appears to be a chill guy on television.
Ramsay is a chill guy in real life that appears to be a cunt on television.
I doubt either would be successful with the other's show.
When it started....
>I get chased
>Matt gets chased
>Matt chases me
>And I chase Matt
Which is a carbon copy of Clarkson's old shtick, then I immediately turned it off. At least try and be different.
>>70222563
DaShawn, pls be calm and stop with the niggerspeak, this isn't WSHH.
>>70222666
>Its like they are actively trying to get you cucked
am i the only one who didn't think matt le blanc was good.
Yes contrasted to chris evans he is the pinnacle of man in car host form, but he was generally still a bit shit.
>>70222402
>but the bbc is dependent on how its exports are successful.
No it isn't. It's not a commercial broadcaster, it is publicly funded. What are you struggling to understand here?
>>70222766
I don't like him.
>>70222846
he ripped on clarkson the whole show then stamped on leblanc for doing the bombshell.
>>70221343
>w-why d-doesn't 4chan act l-like r-reddit?
Friends fucking sucks, why do the british like that retard leblanc?
Everyone knows seinfeld is the superior new york tv show.
Friends is a bunch of good looking people in new york after gentrification
>>70222889
if the bbc suddenly stopped receiving its income from outside of the UK, it would be decommissioned the same year.
It matters a great deal to their program budgeting.
>>70222955
>he doesn't like friends
>failing the litmus test
>nigger detected
>>70222522
>The BBC is riding on a decades old reputation
And yet BBC programs are constantly getting nominated for Emmys and GGs
Kek. The BBC is literally cucking Yank's own award shows
>>70222787
>ever since he got a sense of self importance even while acting, he's just fucking disgusting
I've never seen him act self important in any interview he's done. Usually he's rather soft spoken and modest for a celeb
>>70222946
Downvote for disagreeing with me
