I have no sympathy with the Griffin or the BNP, but this was just the worst kind of bear baiting.
A hostile jeering audience, a hostile panel and even a hostile chairman. The usual QT format was abandoned with every question being designed to taunt Griffin.
Any claims the BBC has to impartiality are now (well, have been for a while) in tatters.
If anything, the underdog effect could come into play here.
While I managed to stop short of actually feeling sorry for the odious Griffin, this was a shambolic spectacle and, if anything, will only garner sympathy for the BNP.

Ma 2p worth...
The leading parties have failed those who the represent to such a degree they allowed Mr BNP to slip in.
One chap in the audience got it right, those that voted BNP, were venting anger I'm sure of it."Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience". Mark TwainComment

Didn't watch - felt that it was over-hyped with the BBC basically advertising the programme in order to get ratings. Why they care about rating I have no clue - they gets our money no matter what. Anyway, Nothing new would have come out of the programme that I already didn't know - so why watch.
Nick Griffen doesn't need to be attacked - he can easily hang himself (ha ha) with his own tongue. Now if the people around here would grow brains and see that. Then his party would disappear into the fog in an instant.McCoy: "Medical men are trained in logic."
