What an odd channel - it’s truly bizarre



Not watched it before but spent a few hours today- it’s like a talk radio station or tv talk show that is deliberately provocative to get callers - but without the callers and on telly.
A new hope.

It’s an interesting channel that’s for sure although I wanna puke when Dan Wooton and his guests are fawning over the royals.





Used to enjoy the Mark Stein show but they sacked him cos he was a bit too real even for them.

I can watch it for an hour maybe but it gets a bit repetitive.

The right wing comedians they put on late at night aren’t very funny though.

I do think it’s really nice how they rehash the careers of ITV rejects like Anne Diamond and Eammon Holmes.

I wouldn’t be surprised if I turn on their breakfast show 1 day and see it being presented by Roland Rat and Kevin the Gerbil.

They’ve even brought Jim Davidson and John Cleese out of retirement.

Tbh Sky news is always my go to news station but when I don’t mind GB news, gives a different perspective and probably urinees some folk off, so all good for me.

There’s some good stuff, like Andrew Doyle and the newspaper roundup with the comedians but there’s also some terrible tabloid style presenters who are almost unbearable.
Personally I welcome something different even if some of its content is a bit like a TV version of the Daily Express.
If you tell the truth, you don't have to remember anything.

I would imagine he’s referring to BBC and ITV.

Or ‘old man points at small boats’

Treat GBN like the comedy channel that it is.

Quite rightly suspend Laurence Fox for his disgusting comments about Ava Evans. DW not coming out of it well either.

Laurence Fox has been burrowing down the unhinged right wing rabbit hole as quickly as a man possibly can. Another grifter. If only it was easy to spot these transparently dishonest vile individuals based on their patterns of behaviour combined with their views.

You should continue enjoying your news channel teeming with unhinged right wing wannabe demagogues and you should continue acting surprised when it turns out they hold vile views, my perpetually tricked friend.

Fox and Wootton suspended - it’s as though hiring loud mouth gobshiiies perhaps would end in tears?
