Default What is going on with BBC Cookery shows

Nadiya Hussain: I no longer fit BBC’s ‘very neat box’

Nadiya Hussain, a Great British Bake Off winner, has spoken out after the BBC cancelled her cooking shows, including Nadiya's British Food Adventure and Nadiya's Everyday Baking.
Hussain suggested the BBC dropped her because she no longer fit their “very neat box”.
She said she was not given a definitive reason for the axing, despite her shows consistently drawing strong audience figures.
A BBC spokesperson confirmed the “difficult decision not to commission another cookery show” with Hussain but maintained she remains “a much-valued part of the BBC family”.
Hussain said she is now focused on being her “most authentic self” and finding a space in the industry where her voice is valued.

Thumbs down

As the BBC decides not to commission another series from her, Nadiya Hussain
says: ‘It’s really difficult as a Muslim woman, I work in an industry that doesn’t
always support people like me.’

There's no real need for her to bring her religion into it, everyone loves Nadiya tbh.

I didn't even know who she was tbh.

I wish that I knew about The Chronicles Of Nadiya sooner.

Default What is going on with BBC Cookery shows

I watched a game the other night in the world club competition


The host and three pundits were all black … they were great pundits and 100 times better than someone like Karen Carney but its no good people like Nadiya Hussain claiming they have it harder than the rest … when the opposite appears to be true ..

Its the same with people claiming their sexuality is a barrier yet watch any Big Brother or Love Island spin off and about 70% of the guests panelists will be gay / lesbian or trans .

Oh and for what it’s worth… I really like her and was chuffed to bits when she won the Bake Off years ago ….
