A good programme taken off air!

The Victoria Derbyshire Show is to be taken off air as a result of having to make cuts.

I wonder if those programmes that are absolute rubbish will be kept on in favour of what I reckon is a good, informative daytime TV programme?

What do you reckon to The Victoria Derbyshire Show and should it be taken off air?

Re: A good programme taken off air!

Is it because of the Beeb's requirement to pay women equally? They should get rid of the awful One Show and other similar gross.

Hear, hear Judd! There is a lot of drivel on the BBC at the moment.

Seems to me that the hatchet is out for BBC presenters who are white and English to make way for even more PC'ness and diversification.

We haven't watched The One Show for months now and have never even seen the Victoria Derbyshire Show.

Used to enjoy watching Question Time until they started filling bums on the panel seats with Celebrity Luvvies, Remainer supporting politicians and biased remain supporting audiences.
A definite turn off and should have been shelved ages ago..

Re: A good programme taken off air!

I've never watched this but apparently only got a small audience? I do think it poor form though, that Ms Derbyshire wasn't the first one to be informed rather than her hearing of it in a newspaper? Which moron is currently running the Beeb these days anyway?

I gave up on British television when Are You Being Served ended.
