News Knight with Sir Trevor McDonald

[Sasha13]

Good or rubbish?

[missjef]

i have to say i actually rather like this program, but mainly because i love Frankie Boyle and Marcus Brigstocke. i do find some of it fairly funny though.

[beejaybee]

I agree with you missjef. I think they make the programme.

[andy-hughes]

I think the notion that steady old listed-bulding man-of-gravitas posh-accent-and-hey-he's-black! Sir Trev having a sense of humour (or sorts) and (gasp!) swearing, is a novelty that wears off very quickly.

That said, the panelists more than hold up the format, and are genuinely amusing.

Like a lot of shows, it would work no matter who fronted it - it's not Sir Trev people tune in for.

[zipadeedodah]

Totally agree with Andy's first paragraph about Trevor McDonald. I'm a fan of Frankie Boyle, and quite like Marcus Brigstocke, but don't watch the programme - Sir Trevor is just so wooden, and it all comes across to me as awkward.

[Alan2]

Utter crap, But dont shout too loudly in case you upset the minorities!

[MacGeekGirl]

I only watched the first one and vowed never to watch it again. Marcus Brigstock was the only decent thing about the whole show but even he couldn't tempt me to tune in a second time. Whoever told Trevor he could make it work as comedy host should be fired and never work in the media again. Or perhaps it was Trevor's idea and nobody had the balls to tell him it was the crappest idea ever. So definitely rubbish.
