Because the Stupid BBC
can not fit it in due to tennis



Last year, we never had this madness.

There's nothing wrong with the BBC having Sport on their channel every so often.

It's also smart business as they're big ratings winners.

Yes, but as they have two channels
they fit it in.

Like Years before


Many Viewers will miss this Live show

Our Politics is dreadful at the moment.

I doubt that anything good is going to be said on the Show.

You are wrong
As it's a format having two sitting MP's
and other guests who ask questions


That works

Do the MP's even know what they're doing half of the time though?

My point being, that I would be more interested personally if the country had better Parties.

Or indeed good tennis players to excuse this diabolical shuffle.

Today at 12:15PM on BBC1HD a Repeat of Bargain Hunt.

That would have been perfect for Politics Live

Sadly the stupid/stuffy BBC hate changing channels?

Valid Point

So they could remove that repeat of Bargain Hunt
BBC1HD today at their normal time 12:15PM - 1PM


Simple to do

Tennis Live on BBC2HD fine

Just imagine the complaints that would come flooding in from the likes of LT and Kate if they pulled Bargain Hunt

Wimbledon is only once a year.
I don't mind this alteration to times, I'd just prefer more tennis shown from Wimbledon and less chat.

As for Politics 'live'.
For a good while it's been more like Politics 'dead'.
I mean they don't even do a programme on Fridays as to Politics Live, not even during the recent 'end of life' bill when it was being debated on fridays in parliament.
It's a programme that really wouldn't be missed much now I think.
It's really been awful and just got worse after Andrew Neill stepped down from it.
In my view anyhow.

Joey,
They occasionally do a Friday show
if they need to.


Today's early show had great debates

Well that's fine
I can't recall a friday show recently however.

In any case, okay it's on earlier than usual however it is still on, so no real issue in my view.

Unfortunately there are much better Tennis players currently, than there are good Politicians.
