...the bastard that commissioned “historyonics"...

...should be cut in five and fed to a horde of ravenous otters.

Just what the fuck is wrong with the BBC these days? They're clearly pandering to Blair's insipid “inclusion agenda” in order to suck up to the government in the wake of their fisting at the arms of Lord Hutton [mini poll: how many of you can tell me what Hutton's christian name is without looking it up?] by making a history programme aimed at stupid people. They've completely failed to understand the simple truth that stupid people won't watch anything with the word history in the title (no matter how inane or childish it is) so the only people who will be tuning in are the intelligent ones, and they'll tune right back out again the instant that
(a) they realise it was scripted by a six-year-old; and/or;
(b)they catch sight of that cunt Nick Knowles “tellin us 'ow it was” or chattin' to the miserable band of sideshow extras they've brought in to play the protagonists.

The only thing that can possibly save this atrocious pile of shite from ratings oblivion is the fact that the other channels each broadcast similarly execrable streams of bilge at this time on a sunday evening.
