Quote
GB News trounced in viewing figures by Pobol y Cwm – and gets five times fewer than Welsh language Paw Patrol


GB News’s viewing figures have slumped below those of Welsh language S4C shows such as Pobol y Cwm, the latest figures reveal.

The right-wing news channel debuted to ratings of 336,000 on June 13, higher even than established rivals Sky News and BBC News.

But the latest figures showed a significant slump, with only a maximum of 32,000 tuning in on Thursday. Chairman Andrew Neil’s own flagship show only attracted 31,000.

It means that the channel has slumped below viewing figures for Welsh language S4C shows such as Pobol y Cwm, which attracts 44,000 viewers according to the latest S4C stats.

Welsh language Paw Patrol, Patrol Pawennau, pulled in over five times as many viewers at 161,000.

BBC News at Ten on Thursday meanwhile pulled in 3.6 million viewers.

The slump in GB News viewers comes as Chairman Andrew Neil announced that he would be taking a break from presenting on the network.

At the end of his regular program Thursday, Andrew Neil, said that he would “be back before the summer is out, and popping up when you least expect it.” Colin Brazier, another presenter for the channel, will be taking over Neil’s place during his break.

Admitting to a “rocky start” for the channel, the chairman said he would soon take a “few weeks” hiatus in a recent monologue.

He added: “We get better every day, and there is clearly an appetite for what we are doing.

“In two short weeks, we have already built a loyal audience, which has beaten all of our expectations.”

Sorry but are we allowed to laugh yet?

I had my doubts before hand, but I just can't see how a lecturing, patronising opinion spouting 'news' channel could work in the UK. Its not very British, which is ironic considering its meant to be British. Watched a bit of 'Dan Wooton' and it was a painful watch.

Angela Rayner because I told her that on her education policies was a waste of time beciase schools already did it (VERY thin skinned)

And Nick Griffin…. Because I destroyed his illogical argument and it was easier for him to block me.  I could have said “I know where you live” …but didn’t …that would be unfair

So, that's four blocks from those with blue-check-marks. Hopefully it is not the only four times you've used twitter! :) I don't use Twitter, so have little idea of how much blocking goes on there. But I've used forums for 20 years - I've never blocked anyone. But maybe one or two have blocked me here. :-X

If that's all you did to earn being blocked by Rayner, that is indeed very thin-skinned of her. A very poor quality for anyone, and especially so for a politician. ::)

A lot of them are the sort of self-important blowhards that are used to being seen as important and having their opinions matter, but also people whose position in life would have traditionally insulated them from major consequences.

The idea that the 'little people' have any sort of power is an anathema to them.

Your comment there prompted me to take a look:

I managed 14 mins. It is pretty dire. I prefer the other Oliver and Stewart myself (that's John and Jon).

It is pathetic. I am happy to see GBeebies imploding under the huge pile of shiteness. :)

It gets better. Apparently they were forced to tweet that out to save their viewership, which has apparently hit ZERO on some of their shows since that knee, because the viewers, who let's recall are the first to complain about their racist heroes suffering from 'cancel culture', decided to BOYCOTT the channel.

I genuinely don't understand the people on the right anymore (maybe not the entire right, or even strictly the far-right. What shall we call it the... "dense right"?). They're happy to stand on the wrong side of history, twisting their narrative of the world through bizarre contortions just so that they can arrange the awful, hurful things they believe in better in their heads.

Most people aren't actively racists and right wing, they are just lazy, opportunistic, greedy, and failing to see the bigger picture or to think things through. They are also frightful with a "poor me" mentality and thus they easily follow the self-proclaimed leaders of the right, who promise to make everything they go away.

Of the small minority of active racists and fascists, most are inept and too stupid to cope with everyday life, so they fail to produce anything and are often entagled in in-fighting and the occasional brush with the law.

Only very few are able to be successful, and usually by masquarading as someone less extreme.

The true insanity is that history itself tells these idiots that they're on the wrong side. Yet they choose to persevere. I guess Brexit and politics in other countries has emboldened them.

As with many who have gone before, they seek to put a spell on enough people to intimidate the rest into going along with things. Media is a key tool in that endeavor. So far, thankfully, it's not worked.

They're happy to stand on the wrong side of history, twisting their narrative of the world through bizarre contortions just so that they can arrange the awful, hurful things they believe in better in their heads.

Because their base is pretty much relegated to Lawrence Fox voting, Tommy Robinson supporting, Brexit voting, S*n reading flag shaggers. And the problem with that is they'll never be right-wing enough to satisfy them.

Andrew Neil wanted to bring over the small c conservative Boomer viewership demographic from the BBC, which hasn't happened. Younger demographics aren't wasting their time watching 24 hour news channels either. There just isn't the market for it in the UK.

And the market GBeebies are going for, Talkradio have got covered anyway.

So. Does anyone still feel that GBeebies is going to be a runaway success? To me, they seem destined to fail and I could not be happier about it. :)

I thought people would love having that shit on, but I'd be very glad to be wrong about it!

Well, to be fair, we all were only guessing at the outcome. But I am very happy that my guess seems to be panning out. Hopefully, the pockets of some assholes will be emptied in the process.

Expect the worst and you can only be pleasantly surprised.

Liberals and lefties aren't going to watch it and it'll never be right-wing enough for the hard right, who'll have a shit fit every time something happens that they don't like (i.e. this fella who've they've just got sacked). The further right they go they'll also lose the more moderate conservative, so it's a conundrum. Therefore their target audience is reduced. Ultimately their presenters are second rate and that's a big problem, along with the amateurish production.

They're not going to be able to afford stronger presenters and a more professional outfit once the advertisers desert them because nobody is watching them. It's just an Andrew Neil vanity project.
