It's frustrating the way GB News do this.
They either announce things that never happen, or they do happen but then are quietly dropped a short time afterwards, with no explanation.
A similar notable example was that weekend sports show they announced, which ran for about three weeks then vanished.
There are other examples.
I get that things change, plans change, things don't work, but at least tell us, the viewers. (Especially us presentation enthusiasts!)
Regarding Portillo, it was only on for about three weeks, surely not enough time to judge it a failure. I don't understand it.
And surely The Political Correction couldn't have been performing that well for it to have replaced to start with, and yet it's back in exactly the same format with exactly the same presenters as before. It simply doesn't make sense.
The farce with Darren Grimes is kind of similar, he's in, he's out, he's in, he's out. I don't get why they brought him back (with half the rostered shows) only to then fire him (which I think is what's happened).
Never any real information over Colin Brazier and Alex Phillips either, though at least there it became clear very quickly what had happened, and it wasn't mere weeks after they'd started!
