Summary: BBC one's show "The Great British Bake off" is now moved to Channel 4 from next year. Mel Giedroyc and Sue Perkins will not be joining the next year bake off because of the channel move, Paul and Mary are still yet to say about weather they're are going to stay or not. Some have suggested that ad-breaks at Channel 4 will ruin the experience as well as the reputation of bake off moving to a whole different channel. BBC couldn't keep Bake off due to their fundings.
- up to 13 million viewers will suddenly be told to change channel for their favourite show has caused people take their views on social media.
- Bake Off has reflected some crucial BBC values: one Reithian – Mary and Paul are, in a light way, educational about their skills – and one more recent, in the commendable diversity of the contestants.
- The BBC is understood to have offered £15m - Love Productions demanded an estimated £25m a year.
My opinion: As a viewer of a watching The great British bake off, I feel though as if bake off would never be the same anymore due to the channel's views and values, and the reputation of the show would never be the same. Once a show starts on a channel it and gets removed from it, the show can change due to the show moving to a channel 4 to fit their target audience. Even though the show got moved because BBC couldn't offered to keep the show, the audience figures should have kept the show because due to the change many people may not watch the show now.
