WHY DOES IT (NOT) ALWAYS RAIN ON ME…?

A Biased BBC reader brings this example of a BBC programme faking weather for climate change inspired program!

“Top Gear presenter Richard Hammond swapped steering wheels for wet weather gear when filming his latest TV series. The star of Total Wipeout and Richard Hammond’s Blast Lab is hosting a new three part BBC1 series entitled Wild Weather with Richard Hammond – and naturally motored up to Cumbria for an episode on water. But they had to make their own rain when they got here. He and the crew filmed at Honister Slate Mine as they explored the force and effect water has on our weather and our land.”

My aching sides…

    Richard Hammond and his colleagues from Top Gear are the epitome of your home counties, immature public school boy prats. They need to grow up.

    If there’s such a condition as juvenile dementia then I think the Top Gear team have it.

      And they have made a fortune for the BBC from it. If it were not for the massive profits that show generates for the BBC, it would have been scrapped years ago.

    I try to refrain from commenting as it seems to disturb the regulars but in this case I will make an exception.

    DV seems to be confusing weather and climate in his quest to prove bias. Can I suggest that before commenting you read this article on the programme in question:

    http://www.twofour.co.uk/news/wild-weather-with-richard-hammond-for-bbc-one/

    Curiously the one word absent from this article and also the one cited in DV’s piece is “climate”.

    In the BBC’s own words: “Richard Hammond travels the globe to discover the unexplained and the unexpected, the unbelievable and the just plain unlikely, in an attempt to reveal the hidden world of weather.”

    It’s all about weather and not climate!!

      Weather is meteorological events that don’t suit the desired narrative and climate are those that do.

      That old chestnut!

      Funny how any sudden down pour, flood or drizzle event is punted into ‘climate’ when the BBC wants to make a point though isn’t it?

      If weather is not indicative of AGW then why do the BBC keep saying it is?

    Richard Hammond is the living embodiment of the term ‘irritating little tw@t’. Didn’t he wade in on the MMR controversy with some pseudo-scientific programme justified purely on the grounds of being a celebrity so he must voice an opinion?

    Yes, they are immature and sometimes charmless prats but I would put in a word for James May who when not in Top Gear mode presents extremely interesting, imaginative and thoughtful programmes.
