Well..... I have been waiting for an opportunity to post an Adam Curtis video!

How come Farage only has access to this studio?? It seems a marked improvement to what we've seen in the initial few weeks. The email above states they are building a new brighter studio. If this is in addition to the underground nuclear bunker set and the new Garage set, the premises must be fairly large. I expect the new programmes will gradually be migrated to the Farage & newly built set, in order to give the channel the new-look it desperately needs.

Love the daily evening pint sipping on a national news channel! Plus the "Barrage Farage" section at the end of his show where viewers send in their emails to Nigel. The first most pressing question of the day tonight was "What pint are you drinking, Nige?" :lol:

Pint sipping is that allowed on a news channel ?

This sums up this "news" channel entirely.

Andrew Neil drank Blue Nun on This Week several times

Isn't it the same with Andrew Neil's bunker though - I don't think any other show is anchored from there. I don't think either Neil's bunker or Farage's Garage would suit the style they're going for in their daytime shows anyway.

Pure speculation but could it be laying the groundwork in the hope of Farage getting GB News an exclusive interview with Trump? Such interview would likely give them a lot of publicity, as almost certainly the newspapers would cover it, along with possibly some other news channels.

I'd like to introduce this...
Nice find - cheers for posting it. Is there any way to watch a full show altogether instead of in minute-length sections?

Farage not enough to pull them ahead of Sky, then.

He's raking in the views on GB News' YouTube channel though. 172,000 for his first show and other clips doing almost as well.

Taking of which, they've finally started live streaming on YouTube today.

And that's an important point, YouTube is more likely to be a important outlet for these right-wing outlets than linear. talkRADIO and GB News will benefit from being on that platform.

Watching the YouTube stream, they don't have the Red Bee generated ticker or clock and the sound is awful. Over modulating.

Just had a look on their channel and you're right - impressive.

Seems there's massive variation in viewing figures across different videos.

From 172,000 views on that Farage video to this video...

... from one of Colin Brazier's programmes, with - at the time of writing - 974 views after being online for a week. (Note: I'm not singling out Colin as being a bad/unpopular presenter. This is just an example - there any various other videos I could have chosen to illustrate the point.)

You can see why they've increased Farage's presence from his occasional appearances to his new nightly programme - he's evidently resonating with the audience and directing more interest to the channel so they must be chuffed with that.

Where the audio quality is even worse, somehow... I imagine they are boosting the levels to make it a little more "internet-friendly" but going way too far.
Seems they've taken down the YouTube live stream - fingers crossed it's to allow them to fix that sound - just gave it a go five minutes ago out of curiosity and I can't help but concur with [mention]London Lite[/mention] and [mention]valley[/mention] - it really was pretty abominable.
Something that's surprised me with these ratings is just how many people watch the BBC News Channel and Sky News outside of something major, although these channels aren't just rolling news, they do have other channels (BBC has things like Click and Sky has the climate change programme - can't remember what it's called) I just wasn't expecting their viewership to be so high.
