Bake Off will not be on the BBC in future

[bojorojo]

The meeting between Love Productions and the BBC has resulted in Bake Off leaving the BBC due to the BBC not offering enough money to keep it! Where will it go and will it be the same?

Assuming they keep all the presenters I don't really mind - don't want adverts though! :(

ITV were desperate for it so I assume there, Mary and Paul did say they wouldn't follow though if it did . I wonder if they will stick to their word?

I think it's had its day anyway and I used to love it.

That is very sad.

It'll be rubbish, bezza won't go with it and it will flop.

Bit like when itv tried to nick the breakfast duo and it went shit.

That's awful. It won't be the same if it's not on the BBC

Just seen it on the BBC news it just won't be the same (and I hate adverts!)

I assume that ITV got it and there'll be ads, product placement and recommendations.
I don't watch much TV that has ads.

Oh no. It's not worth watching without the current presenting team. I shall savour this last series then! With extra cake...

yes!! goodbye endless adverts for watching people making cake! Goodbye endless extra programmes about making more cake!

Oh that's crap, it won't be the same and will probably wither and die and all for a bit of extra money, shame on you Love Productions the BBC and the audience who watch the BBC made the programme what it is.

Perhaps it's time to shelve it anyway. Quit while they are ahead?

I have never really got it TBH, but I know I am an exception.

Well we're not enjoying this current series and now that it's going to any other channel we won't watch it beyond this series - really don't like ads, really don't fancy watching other presenters or judges, they all just work together so well.

It suited the BBC.
It will just feel fake and cheap on ITV.

Fuck sake, surely this is worth a referendum.

I'm not watching it without Mary Berry, Mel and Sur.

Fuck sake, surely this is worth a referendum

I'm really cross about this.

I think the Production company are being greedy. The BBC has had to make cuts so won't be able to compete with the commercial stations but the BBC made this programme what it is. It will not be the same with adverts!

ITV tried to rip off Bake Off with Carol fucking Vorderman, didn't they? And it was shit. If Mel and Sue and Mary refuse to sign up to the new channel (Paul would sign up to any channel ) then fuck it, Bake Off is dead to me.

I used to love it but Mel and Sue just make jokes about buns and Mary Berry looks like she has had so much surgery that I'm surprised she can move her face at all

I agree with you bakeoffcake the Production Company are just seeing £ signs.

BBC should just copy it with same presenters and call it Bake On.

I think it's run its course though.

I have loved bake off in the past, but I feel it is starting to get a bit stale

Get. Your. Coat.

OH just said it's going to Ch 4

I am very excited about a potential move to ITV.
What Bake Off really needs are more flashing lights, flickier hair, more competition, longer pauses before announcing winners and more celebs. I think they might even be able to do away with the cakes entirely and just use whizzy graphics instead.

Oh, and sob stories, lots and lots of sob stories.

Does anyone remember the move from BBC2 to BBC1? It is going to be even worse.
