I never thought BBC could change a programme so badly as they did with Film 2010 but I obviously underestimated the ignorance of the BBC. It's easy to be clever in retrospect but it's the job of whoever makes these changes to be clever in advance. To try and anticipate what will work and what won't. Just going by the reaction on this message board alone they got it badly wrong.
The reason for this is taking one programme and trying to make into something completely different. Namely trying to turn Masterchef into X-Factor. It's pathetic. People watch Masterchef for the personalities yes, but it's the cooking that really matters. Now it's all about the personalities, the crying, the families backstage, the dream, the auditions. It's X-factor with a bit of cooking thrown in. It's making John and Greg into Simon Cowell wannabees, demi-gods the contestants and ourselves are supposed to worship. So they now have a programme that's rubbish. It's absolute garbage. They've given it a face-lift and ended up making it look like Sylvester Stallone's mum.
