But the whole point with uh a show like that is Love Productions made it, Love Productions produced it, Love Productions, you know, made it into a hit, of course Mel and Sioux did as well. voice-verified

But as a production company you're you're not making any more money like on series four or series five of that because that's just not how I don't think they felt the BBC voice-verified

And it's not even so much that they didn't look after them. voice-verified

You you are not allowed to cr to commercially exploit your IP if you're with the BBC. voice-verified

That's just not the deal. voice-verified

Whereas if you go to Channel Four, which they were legally able able to do after a certain number of years, you now own your IP. voice-verified

And you can start selling kitchenware and you can start the you know, there's there's the you know bake off books and all this kind of stuff. voice-verified

So they were able to do that. voice-verified

Firstly they were able to charge an awful lot more for the show. voice-verified

Uh and because, you know, advertisers are paying for it m rather than license fee payers. voice-verified

But secondly, they're able to exploit all of their IP. voice-verified

So that for me was uh people were furio they said they're being disloyal to the BBC, all this kind of stuff. voice-verified

I it's No, voice-verified

It's business. voice-verified

It is business and it's creative business and they you know and people say well they g Channel four will run it into the ground, which they haven't. voice-verified

They've shepherded it beautifully, you know, they've uh had so with so many caste changes and I think you know the cast at the moment the I mean it's a lot of things. voice-verified

But well as you say, it is voice-verified

Well as you say it is fascinating. voice-verified

So yeah, so so many people I know who work on the show will be messaging me saying, Nigella's brought us in some granola this morning. voice-verified

It is delicious. voice-verified
