I think Mel and Due are as good as Ant and Dec. They should do more shows together.
*Sue
“…..as good as Ant and Dec” Worst. Recommendation. Ever. Lol!
As good as Cannon.and Ball..better?
As good as Little and Large?
How about the Crankies? :)
They recwntly did a daily chat show together that failed miserably.
It won’t be as enjoyable to watch without Mel & Sue’s little quips, and then of course on C4 there’ll be all the stupid ads spun through it. The show will probably sink when it moves . . . Just like one of them less than successful Victoria sponge cakes, when they opened the oven door to soon.
Maybe they should present Top Gear seeing how it was a half baked effort last season
“A head-scarf wearing Bangladeshi baker”?!
I am so saddened to hear this…love Mel and Sue just won’t be the same without them..wonder what Paul and Mary will do…hope production company see sense….they may regret moving to Channel 4 without the original presentets
Maybe Mel and Sue have signed separate binding contracts with the BBC not to work for rival broadcasters. When Big Brother moved from Channel 4 to Channel 5, Davina McCall couldn’t move with with it, she could only present Channel 4 shows. She went on to present other Channel 4 shows like The Big Drop.
They will be on the breadline in no time.
A fundamentalist Muslim is being hailed as an inspirational symbol of 21st century Britain? Sounds about right
Aldough there was love there there was dough there to dough.
She isn’t a “fundamentalist Muslim” she a muslim’ and you are a bigot!
Homer’s imp son?
More like Homer’s gimp son.
making cakes is prime time tv…..thanks be to jebus for netflix
Never mind sure we still have the great Irish bake off eh? No ? Eh ?
Is ” goatee ” aka Paul Hollywood leaving too? And the old dear??
Read the article.
I’m sure Irish Water and/or the government are to blame for this debacle!
Swing and a miss
If you can’t stand the heat ……..
Hate this show. How fan you fill an hour critiquing a flan?
Great, It’s going to take about 3 hours to show it if they want to fit all the content with the ad breaks. Plus Paul and Mary have other shows on BBC so I can’t see them moving. Looks like the end of the road.
What a Relief – What an Article – d 2 of them.
Soggy Bottoms, Creamy Buns….oh, how hilarious !
have your say
