Hull really does let itself down with demonstrations of ignorance. It wasn't a "show" - he was introducing the opera. For the ****wits on here, that means saying something about it before it starts. Like programme notes - got it? Probably not.
You really think thats a good way to spend the license fee? Having an old crooner who nobody likes speaking for literally 40 seconds before playing 2 hours of music. To be honest if something is called "Melodies with Alan Titchmarsh" I expect him to host the bloody show. Get of your ****ing high horse and piss off.
