But that isn't Question Time!
No, that isn't the right-leaning political show - that is actually A Question of Sport.
But last time I actually mentioned Question Time, I titled it "A Question of Sport" so this makes up for it.
Anyway, the question Paddy McGuinness must be asking himself is, "What have I done to upset the BBC?"
After several years of being given (inappropriately) lots of TV shows that he really shouldn't be fronting, first Top Gear gets canned and now A Question of Sport has gone the same way.
As I have previously stated, I DO LIKE PADDY McGUINNESS!
But not for Top Gear. And I know the Question of Sport fans preferred Sue Barker - a UK tour of that team drew in the crowds after they were booted off showing that the BBC sometimes make daft decisions - I refer you back to my 2018 Post M'Lud.
The BBC needs to be careful - I mentioned earlier this month that YouTube is now my main source of motoring information, education and entertainment - Lord Reith should be spinning in his grave.
I am actually subscribed to 14 motoring YouTube channels (15 if you include Dominic Chinea)
There are the three I really like who specialise in driving old cars with bits of maintenance jobs and other interesting stuff interspersed:
- Hub Nut - the nerdy one
- Idriveaclassic - the woman one
- Twin Cam - the young one
My highlight of the week is Dennis Collins' Coffee Walk on a Friday which also usually involves food and there is his Dallas-based neighbour Gas Monkey Garage. The other American ones are:
- Jay Leno's Garage
- TFL Classics
There are the electric ones:
- Electric Classic Cars - the Welsh one
- The Fully Charged Show - the Kryten one
There is Top Gear which is a good addition to Top Gear Magazine although I actually prefer reading their stuff but it is nice to hear the voices of their journalists. And if you want Clarkson, May & Hammond there is DriveTribe - mostly Hammond these days.
The Late Brake Show is Jonny Smith's vehicle (if you'll pardon the pun) - very entertaining, especially his barn find episodes.
Great British Car Journey is these people - and they have added Sarah Crabtree.
And finally, there is Edd China - who I'm actually a bit worried about. He was the highlight of my week for a very long time but hasn't posted anything new in ages.
So there you go - and here I go.
To catch up on some YouTube.
