Why the blazes would anyone at BBC America think Americans would recognize Rhod Gilbert's name (I had to look it up). Nothing against him, but I don't think I can muster names of any current UK comedians besides Eddie Izzard and Billy Connolly (SCG is an American now, and I'm not sure Gervais does or did standup).
This bonehead move is compounded by BBC mothership uploading a clip from the show after it aired in the UK. It's of Radcliffe sort of singing Tom Lehrer's "The Elements." http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rSAaiYKF0cs David ________________________________ From: Jon Delfin <[email protected]> Subject: [TV orNotTV] another reason to distrust BBC America The program information from BBCA that appears on my DVR shows that Rhod Gilbert and Rihanna are the guests on Graham Norton's show tonight. Which means that someone at BBCA thought it wasn't important to mention that Daniel Radcliffe and Colin Farrell are also appearing. Because who wants to see *them*? -- TV or Not TV ....
