Former Great British Bake Off winner Nadiya Hussain has revealed the BBC has cancelled her cooking show after a decade on screen, describing the decision as "really difficult".
The 40-year-old, who won the sixth series of the baking show in 2015, announced the news to her 950,000 Instagram followers in a rambling video discussing changes in her career.
Was The RaceCard pulled? Reader, you knew it would be....
Hussain also railed against the "challenges" she faces as a Muslim woman in TV. "Actually, it's really difficult as a Muslim woman.
"I work in an industry that doesn't always support people like me or recognise my talent or my full potential," she said.
Oh, good grief, series are cancelled all the time, especisally cookery shows = Rick Stein hasn't had a new show recently. nor Delia (and neither of those posted rambling 'pity me' videos while taking a political swipe at Israel and the non-existent 'Palestinian genocide')- haven't you made enough money from the run you've had? All those books?
If not, whose fault is that? Who is ever owed a lifetime contract?
I spent over 20 years in the broadcasting industry, including a long stint at the Beeb, and I can tell you they don't give a flying foxtrot for any of their staff, let alone "talent" that no longer pulls in the ratings. Oh sure, they will fawn all over the next hot ticket, and let them off for behaviours that would get you sacked in any other industry, while holding the regular working Jo(e)s to a much higher standard. But as soon as the sheen is gone, so are you. You had a good run from winning a realty TV show, take the win and stop whining.
ReplyDeleteAs I keep pointing out to Leftards and Muslims everywhere, the Eeeevil Joos aren't very good at this Gazan Genocide lark. If they were, this would have been over and done on the 8th October. I also ask them "if you're so sure of your own righteousness and the cause, why aren't you fighting the IDF?"
ReplyDeleteOf course there's never, EVER, a response
However deserved her win she was a gift to beeboids, look how diverse we are. Ten years? Job done, move on. Must focus on the rainbow flag now, we've got pride you know.
ReplyDeleteShirley, she has juicy contracts lined up in one of those rich oil nations East of Suez. They know were a woman's place is.The

Everything, and everyone, has some sort of shelf life. Just look at all the so called slebs who keep going on when they should have retired years ago. I'm the case of chefs, how many times can you book a pan of water in a different way. This lady won a cooking contest, wrote at least one cook book, and made a shed load of money. No doubt she will continue to make money through cookery demonstrations, and I wish her well. Personally, my interest in such shows ended with Keith Floyd. "If it's not good enough to drink, it's not good enough to be included in the recipe. Cheers."
