BBC admits it should have cut the performance.

Bob Vylan: BBC says live coverage of Glastonbury set should have been pulled

It comes after Ofcom said it had asked the BBC why controversial remarks made by the band were broadcast live.

Really poor by the BBC, they already knew that there was at least one controversial act (not being broadcast) and other acts often will come out in support so this was hardly a surprise.

So why did the Director fail to cut the feed? Were there procedures in place if not why not this is a live TV it's not like something new for the BBC who have decades of experience of live broadcast and the odd F bomb from some idiot.

It’s very difficult to hit the ‘cut’ button before someone has finished a sentence or two. The BBC aren’t to blame here.

I must admit, while initially thinking that the BBC were caught out here, when I heard that the 'death to the IDF' chant went on for 33 seconds I do feel somewhat less sympathetic to the BBC control room.

Did they let their politics get in the way of their professionalism?.....it's a reasonable if unknowable question to ask.

Either way it's worthy of criticism.
 
One of the Mr. Vylan's real name is Pascal Robinson-Foster. These Robinsons are a trouble making crew. Who's next to stir it up? Smokey? Edward G? Anne? Crusoe?

Both were alright. But both s*** now due to completely opposite reasons. One has been taken over by scumbags. The other taken over by wankers. I'm pretty sure you can work out which. Unfortunate, but I can't imagine it's only my opinion. I would have gone to both originally and neither now. They've lost their way and their demise is hastening - however, they could change.

Glastonbury is far less left wing and political than it used to be.

I am told they are on a 30 second delay.
If I was being interviewed on the beeb and started cussing Starmer I would be cut in seconds.
They are very much at fault!
 
The REAL issue is why all the fuss about comments about the Israeli Army (and I suspect the usual suspects would all be keeping schutm if it had been the Russian Army) and yet almost zero coverage of this t*** saying anybody who wanted their country back can f*** right off.

This is the crucial distinction people should be focused on.

What the f*** have the Israeli Army, and what people might or might not think about it, got to do with us?

Glastonbury does not need the BBC, Badger.

Oh I think it does but we shall see. As the bbc do not publish how much they pay, not sure how you can be so sure. Look how much the artists are paid, compared to ticket costs. Looks like the “ acts” are being investigated for hate speech, similar to Lucy Connolly?
