I hope she is still doing her weekend GB News shows.

She is a very good presenter, indeed among the best on the channel.

Imagine being such a ridiculous individual that you get riled up about the serving of nuts on planes:

Northern Ireland has a clown shortage. She could earn a fortune and not have to travel to England.

Could you explain how he's getting riled up? He's merely opening a conversation.

"Can this be right?" is a very loaded opener to the conversation.

Considering people with allergies have been made seriously ill from people opening nuts in planes when told not to....

Fair point, but I still think that calling him 'riled up' is reading too much into it - I think he's just asking a question/starting a conversation.

It’s an utterly odd conversation to be opening up though.
It comes across as if 1. he’s never heard of it before. Which I would find very strange. 2. He’s basically questioning if anyone with nut allergies should ever ever be allowed to do transatlantic travel without taking on a high risk of dying. Because that would be the logical outcome.

Of course he could be questioning whether there is actually a risk, but I certainly read it as the former.

Something must have just happened in the studio. I had it on in the background so not quite sure what happened but I think they’d just come back from a break then after about a minute Dolan suddenly interrupted the conversation they’d just started and abruptly cut to another break. Now they’re showing trailers.

Edit: and as soon as I pressed send it came back!

What Brazier was going on about is pretty lazy to be honest. There's other ways of getting people wound up, but being considerate to a person who has a nut allergy isn't that much of an ask.

Couldn't resist taking a look on the YouTube live stream following your comment, [mention]Jon[/mention].

It appears as though they were having some technical issues in the couple of minutes before that abrupt throw to an impromptu break.

Graphics seemed to be getting stuck on screen, lingering translucently long after they should have disappeared.





I also wonder if they were having trouble showing any camera shot other than Mark's, as he was referring to his guests but the camera shot never changed from the one seen in the above screenshots, which seemed a bit unnatural when they're sitting just to the side of him.

Seems as though whatever they did while we were watching Michelle Dewberry imploring us to watch her programme worked, however, as it all seems to be sorted again now.

Exactly. It's a very outdated topic of conversation. Quite what he expects to gain from it is anyone's business.

Me and my boyfriend were flying back from France last month, and there was a similar request made on that flight.

I hadn't realised it could be an issue, and fortunately I didn't have anything with me that had nuts in.

It does seem like Colin is exploring the reaction with an eye to finding outrage or descent.
