All hail our Nige!

[SueEllen]

indeed hence the Rolex comment.

You are aware that BBC1 is not a rolling news channel?

Not necessarily true especially if you tune in after midnight.

[vetran]

Are you really this dim? No one said it was. Can you read?

Well you obviously are

Nigel Farage's GB News show beats BBC News Channel

[Whorty]

Well you obviously are

FFS, how dim can one person be? Ok, let's try this again shall we .. just one more time.

The Wail is comparing the Nige 7 o'clock show, his specific show, versus the same time slots on the BBC News Channel (a rolling news channel) and SKY News (a rolling news channel). Nige gets 107,000 viewers for his specific show and you and the Wail are claiming his news is more popular than the BBC news.

I said a specific targeted show like Farrage's should be more popular than a rolling new channel that people only pop into sporadically. But, compare Farrage's show against a prime BBC news slot and the story is way different.

Given the prime time Beeb news is 6 o'clock on BBC1 with 3.5m viewers, it's highly unlikely that the rolling channel for the next hour will have high numbers.

So ... is summary, Farrage's news show is NOT more popular than the BBC news as claimed by you and the Wail.

HTH, but I'm guessing you are too dim still to understand this

Which of these statements are true? Hint only one is true.

BBC1 is a rolling news channel?

BBC News channel had 3.5 million viewers at 10pm on a channel that has run for decades that is so many more than the 107k viewers that Mr Farage got on his 7pm show that has been running for a couple of weeks. Mr Farage should be ashamed.

Warty is a bit of a thicky.

You really can't understand why you and the Wail are wrong can you? I give up.

I am a real thicky.

FTFY - well at least we have got to the expected result, that was the only sentence that was true.

I see you can't understand why comparing a small self funded news station that has only started a few weeks ago with a goliath funded by a tax on all tv owners with a 100 year history is a David and Goliath comparison. It was compared against BBC news organisation which lost, not the whole multi billion BBC organisation.


If you are going to compare things it doesn't make sense to compare an aircraft carrier to a canoe unless you are an idiot.

And ironically he was never even voted in as an MP.

So in terms of UK influence he probably does deserve a knighthood for his "public service" if you are being non political

Jimmy Savile was pretty influential. It's important what sort of influence you have.
