A Change Is Gonna Come #GBBO

In an age where it's argued daily that women can't, this show was most watched in the UK, sporting a hosting cast where women outnumbered men 3 to 1 (+ Jo Brand hosting An Extra Slice). These 2 women offered humor, compassion, intelligence, grace & diversity.
There's so much to hate about Love Productions decision to make commercials instead of craft but this is the worst. Honestly, I kinda hope Paul & Mary quit too.
To quote S5 finalist, Richard Burr - Channel4 just bought a tent.
I love them for their Paralympic support but I don't like them very much right now.
It took a lot of courage for Mel & Sue to make this choice. To say they care about the kind of work they do not just what they get paid. In a time where they'll still have to fight for work.
It's going to be just another competition show & that's really sad
