0:00:03 > 0:00:04Soon it will be "scone" from the BBC.

0:00:04 > 0:00:06In the week it was announced

0:00:06 > 0:00:09that the corporation lost one of its biggest shows to Channel 4,

0:00:09 > 0:00:10we've got your thoughts on that,

0:00:10 > 0:00:14and the week's BBC television programmes coming up.

0:00:14 > 0:00:16Welcome to your Points Of View.

0:00:26 > 0:00:30Forget Brexit, this week it was news of "Bread-xit"

0:00:30 > 0:00:33that was filling airwaves and column inches.

0:00:34 > 0:00:37After seeing six champions crowned on BBC screens,

0:00:37 > 0:00:39with one more still to come,

0:00:39 > 0:00:42on Monday it was announced that the Great British Bake Off series

0:00:42 > 0:00:44currently airing on BBC One

0:00:44 > 0:00:48will be the last to be screened by the corporation.

0:00:48 > 0:00:50These are a whole plethora of colours

0:00:50 > 0:00:51and they're bone-dry too, overdone.

0:00:51 > 0:00:54There's too much sugar and you overcooked it.

0:00:55 > 0:00:57Biscuits.

0:00:57 > 0:01:00After this year, Bake Off's tent will be pitching up on Channel 4

0:01:00 > 0:01:04because the BBC failed to reach a deal with the production company

0:01:04 > 0:01:06responsible for making the show.

0:01:06 > 0:01:09And the news proved no trifling matter for you.

0:01:30 > 0:01:34Some of you, like ten-year-old Milly, were quick to suggest

0:01:34 > 0:01:37how the BBC could have found the dough needed to hang on to the show.

0:01:49 > 0:01:54But not everyone will be sad to see the series leave BBC screens.

0:02:04 > 0:02:07To get more of your views on the Great British "break-up",

0:02:07 > 0:02:09we set up stall at a market in Bristol

0:02:09 > 0:02:13to ask, should the BBC have stumped up the extra money needed

0:02:13 > 0:02:15to keep Bake Off on BBC ONE,

0:02:15 > 0:02:20or were they right to let Channel 4 serve up the cash instead?

0:02:20 > 0:02:23I think the BBC were right in what they are doing.

0:02:23 > 0:02:26It's taxpayers' money.

0:02:26 > 0:02:29Yes, I think the BBC were right to let the Bake Off go to Channel 4,

0:02:29 > 0:02:30I think it was the right choice.

0:02:30 > 0:02:32I think the BBC should have paid more.

0:02:32 > 0:02:35At the end of the day, it's like the best programme on TV.

0:02:35 > 0:02:37Definitely the most popular programme on TV.

0:02:37 > 0:02:40And the BBC's job is to show what the public wants to watch.

0:02:42 > 0:02:45I think the BBC were right to let Bake Off go to Channel 4,

0:02:45 > 0:02:47because they should be investing their money

0:02:47 > 0:02:49into other programmes on the BBC.

0:02:51 > 0:02:53I think the BBC made the correct decision

0:02:53 > 0:02:56because the BBC is on a very limited budget.

0:02:58 > 0:03:00I think the BBC were right to let it go to Channel 4

0:03:00 > 0:03:02because, at the valuation that they put on it,

0:03:02 > 0:03:05it was too high for the taxpayer to swallow.

0:03:06 > 0:03:09I don't believe the BBC should have paid any more money

0:03:09 > 0:03:10for the Great British Bake Off,

0:03:10 > 0:03:12mainly because they had already spent enough

0:03:12 > 0:03:14starting with it from scratch.

0:03:15 > 0:03:18I do think they should have paid the extra money

0:03:18 > 0:03:20and I think they could have cut money in other areas

0:03:20 > 0:03:21in order to fund it.

0:03:21 > 0:03:23It's kind of sad, really.

0:03:25 > 0:03:29I don't think the BBC should pay more money for the programme.

0:03:29 > 0:03:32After all, to put so much into one programme,

0:03:32 > 0:03:35for one particular group of people,

0:03:35 > 0:03:38probably isn't the right way to go.

0:03:41 > 0:03:45The BBC were right to let it go to Channel 4.

0:03:45 > 0:03:48They've got to be really careful with their money now.

0:03:50 > 0:03:52Mmm, yum-yum!

0:03:52 > 0:03:56The results of our, albeit unscientific, sample

0:03:56 > 0:03:59showing most agreed the BBC were perhaps right

0:03:59 > 0:04:01not to lay out the extra money.

0:04:01 > 0:04:04Bake Off wasn't the only BBC series hitting the headlines

0:04:04 > 0:04:05in the last week.

0:04:05 > 0:04:07Last Sunday saw the climax

0:04:07 > 0:04:10of a long-running domestic abuse storyline

0:04:10 > 0:04:12from the Radio 4 soap The Archers,

0:04:12 > 0:04:14as the verdict in Helen's trial

0:04:14 > 0:04:18for attempting to murder her abusive husband was delivered.

0:04:18 > 0:04:22Have the jury reached verdicts upon which at least 10 of you are agreed?

0:04:22 > 0:04:23Yes.

0:04:23 > 0:04:26The culmination of the trial received coverage

0:04:26 > 0:04:31on both BBC One's 6.35pm and 10 o'clock news bulletins

0:04:31 > 0:04:32on Sunday.

0:04:32 > 0:04:36It was the moment Archers fans had spent months waiting for -

0:04:36 > 0:04:38the end of the trial of one of the main characters

0:04:38 > 0:04:40for attempted murder.

0:04:40 > 0:04:42But some of you were quick to question

0:04:42 > 0:04:46if the soap's storyline was really worthy of prime-time news coverage.

0:05:06 > 0:05:11We asked BBC News why they'd felt the need to cover The Archers story,

0:05:11 > 0:05:13and here's what Sam Taylor, executive editor,

0:05:13 > 0:05:15had to say in response.

0:05:39 > 0:05:43With previous frontwoman Lacey Turner returning to EastEnders,

0:05:43 > 0:05:46another soap star, this time Corrie's Michelle Keegan,

0:05:46 > 0:05:49has gone into battle for the second series

0:05:49 > 0:05:52of BBC One's military-based drama Our Girl.

0:05:52 > 0:05:55Posted to a refugee camp near the Kenya-Somalia border,

0:05:55 > 0:05:59Keegan's character, Army medic Lance Corporal Georgie Lane,

0:05:59 > 0:06:02was soon captured by insurgents.

0:06:02 > 0:06:05Wednesday's episode saw her colleagues battling to rescue her.

0:06:05 > 0:06:06Georgie.

0:06:14 > 0:06:17Primary confirmed alive. Repeat, alive.

0:06:17 > 0:06:19While some of you have praised

0:06:19 > 0:06:21a power-packed performance by Keegan...

0:06:30 > 0:06:33..others felt, after watching the series-opening episode,

0:06:33 > 0:06:35it was all a bit underwhelming.

0:06:50 > 0:06:53And it wasn't just the storylines you found hard to bear.

0:06:53 > 0:06:56Yet again, a familiar problem reared its head.

0:06:56 > 0:06:59I have been watching the episodes of Our Girl.

0:06:59 > 0:07:01I find it a very good drama.

0:07:01 > 0:07:05Unfortunately, it is spoilt by poor diction,

0:07:05 > 0:07:08actors mumbling, and music that goes

0:07:08 > 0:07:10right the way throughout the programme.

0:07:14 > 0:07:17Only loud and patriotic voices in evidence

0:07:17 > 0:07:19last Saturday night on BBC One.

0:07:19 > 0:07:23The Royal Albert Hall's roof was raised once again

0:07:23 > 0:07:26as the 122nd BBC Proms season drew to a close

0:07:26 > 0:07:28with rousing Last Night performances.

0:07:30 > 0:07:32Highlights of the evening included a celebration

0:07:32 > 0:07:35of Henry Wood's Fantasia on British Sea Songs,

0:07:35 > 0:07:38featuring contributions from Proms In The Park events

0:07:38 > 0:07:41in Colwyn Bay, Glasgow Green and Belfast.

0:07:41 > 0:07:48# Oh, Danny boy The pipes, the pipes are calling

0:07:48 > 0:07:51# From glen to glen

0:07:51 > 0:07:55# And down the mountain side... #

0:07:55 > 0:07:58This year's coverage seemed to hit the right note with you.

0:08:07 > 0:08:08But some of you were saddened

0:08:08 > 0:08:10contributions from some nations

0:08:10 > 0:08:13were missing from the latter part of the evening.

0:08:33 > 0:08:36You can relive the Last Night of the Proms on the iPlayer.

0:08:36 > 0:08:38Next up, the BBC One classic

0:08:38 > 0:08:41celebrating its 39th year of production.

0:08:44 > 0:08:47One of the BBC's most watched factual titles, Antiques Roadshow,

0:08:47 > 0:08:51recently returned to BBC One for a new series.

0:08:51 > 0:08:54Last Sunday's episode came from Audley Hall in Essex

0:08:54 > 0:08:58and unearthed a giant bronze cockerel,

0:08:58 > 0:09:02buried in world wars to avoid ending up as ammunition.

0:09:02 > 0:09:05I have seen a couple of bronzes today,

0:09:05 > 0:09:06and then you turn up

0:09:06 > 0:09:08with just the monster of all bronzes.

0:09:08 > 0:09:10Where did you get it from?

0:09:10 > 0:09:11It comes from Belgium.

0:09:11 > 0:09:13But the eagle-eyed amongst you

0:09:13 > 0:09:16have spotted the show is sporting a slightly different look

0:09:16 > 0:09:17since its return.

0:09:27 > 0:09:31The camerawork has changed to a more film-like quality,

0:09:31 > 0:09:35rather than the more studio-based appearance

0:09:35 > 0:09:37that we have had before in previous series.

0:09:37 > 0:09:40I prefer the more studio-based effect

0:09:40 > 0:09:43and I just wonder why there's a difference.

0:09:43 > 0:09:46Well, Antiques Roadshow confirmed

0:09:46 > 0:09:49they have recently changed the way the series is filmed.

0:09:49 > 0:09:53With episodes now shot using a format which does give the programme

0:09:53 > 0:09:54more of a film-like look.

0:09:54 > 0:09:58Here's what the show's executive producer Simon Shaw

0:09:58 > 0:10:00had to say about the change.

0:10:13 > 0:10:16If you're not a fan of the series' new look,

0:10:16 > 0:10:18there is a reprieve in store -

0:10:18 > 0:10:22tonight's episode was filmed before the switch to the new-style format.

0:10:22 > 0:10:24CLUCKING

0:10:24 > 0:10:27The Hairy Bikers are back in the saddle on BBC Two.

0:10:27 > 0:10:31Hairy Bikers - Chicken Egg has Dave and Si on a mission

0:10:31 > 0:10:34to find the best chicken and egg recipes

0:10:34 > 0:10:35in the world.

0:10:35 > 0:10:37Episode two on Tuesday saw them reach France,

0:10:37 > 0:10:41putting a twist on that French classic coq au vin.

0:10:41 > 0:10:44Our wine is going to be blanc, instead of rouge.

0:10:44 > 0:10:47Which means we can indulge ourselves

0:10:47 > 0:10:48with...guess what?

0:10:48 > 0:10:50The addition of cream.

0:10:50 > 0:10:53You put cream in a red-wine chicken dish, it goes purple!

0:10:53 > 0:10:58Some of you feel the chefs' latest series is off to a "cracking" start.

0:10:58 > 0:11:02I have watched two entertaining and enjoyable episodes

0:11:02 > 0:11:05of the Hairy Bikers - Chicken Egg series.

0:11:05 > 0:11:09I also find it very informative, as they talk about the history,

0:11:09 > 0:11:11traditions and different cooking ideas.

0:11:11 > 0:11:14For others, the chefs are perhaps doing

0:11:14 > 0:11:16a bit too much "yolking" around.

0:11:16 > 0:11:17Sorry.

0:11:32 > 0:11:35And finally, the return of Beck to Points Of View.

0:11:35 > 0:11:39Last week we covered the sound issues some of you experienced

0:11:39 > 0:11:42with BBC Four's Saturday night Swedish drama,

0:11:42 > 0:11:44which appear to have been resolved.

0:11:44 > 0:11:48But fans of the series have been in touch with us once more.

0:12:12 > 0:12:16Of course. Our crack team of researchers sprang into action.

0:12:16 > 0:12:19Here is what they discovered. Now, bear with us.

0:12:19 > 0:12:21In September and October last year,

0:12:21 > 0:12:24BBC Four showed one episode from Series 4,

0:12:24 > 0:12:27then four episodes from Series 5.

0:12:27 > 0:12:31In July and August this year came four episodes from Series 3,

0:12:31 > 0:12:35followed by one from Series 4, before Series 6 started

0:12:35 > 0:12:37on 10th September.

0:12:37 > 0:12:39Confused? So were we.

0:12:39 > 0:12:42All of those episodes were shown for the first time on those dates -

0:12:42 > 0:12:47so why, we asked the BBC, didn't you show them in the right order?

0:13:02 > 0:13:04Hmm. That's it for another week.

0:13:04 > 0:13:06Please do continue getting in touch with your thoughts

0:13:06 > 0:13:08on the BBC's television programmes.

0:13:08 > 0:13:12You can send us your comment, or a video, through our website...

0:13:15 > 0:13:17..or drop us an e-mail...

0:13:19 > 0:13:23..and you can join in the conversation on social media, too...

0:13:30 > 0:13:32We are back in a mid-afternoon slot next Sunday.

0:13:32 > 0:13:36You'll find is on BBC One at 2.45pm. See you then.
