Re: BBC at risk of losing the Six Nations rights
Tbh I read that story as simple headline grabbing newsbait. It's never just a matter of money, it's also a matter of priority.
The BBC figures it will get sympathy for saying it can't afford the 6N, not so much if it drops a drama series.

It has jumped the shark. It hasn't ever been subtle or understated but it has definitely turned the volume up to 11. It's a shame because Series 1 had promise.
