The BBC booked the theatres for a private showing. Even if no one 
attended it would have counted as a full house. What is it that you 
don't understand?

No one is watching on iPlayer fool. We went through all that last time.

Viewers are guided to iPlayer by advertising. The majority don't watch 
for more than 10 seconds. The vast majority, 99% of those who watch for 
10 seconds or more then leave before the programme has ended.

What the hell is Space Cadet doing at #3 on Amazon Prime. It's infantile 
badly made low budget woke garbage. But Amazon keep promoting it every 
time I go there. I've not even watched 10 seconds of it after watching 
the insulting trailer.

What the hell is My Lady Jane doing at #2? Only watched 10 seconds of 
it. What the fuck are south east Asians and west sub-Saharan Africans 
doing in Tudor England? It might be billed as a comedy but this is 
beyond the believability of a Peckham school play. But at least they got 
me to watch the stupid moronic adverts trying to sell me lotions for 
THRUSH despite that and that's all that matters to them. Do I look like 
fucking stupid promiscuous whore with a yeast infection? They know I'm a 
man. Why are they advertising shit intended for women to me? No wonder 
the programmes have become crap ever since they forced subscribers to 
watch adverts. Why should men keep subscribing?

The Boys is #1 which is more believable but episode 5 has been the only 
decent episode in series 4. Still 99% of the audience watched not much 
more than 10 seconds and never finished a single episode. I am the 
exception.

The ratings are all fiddled. Amazon want The Boys at number 1, My Lady 
Jane at number 2 and Space Cadet at number 3 so they pushed them on 
everyone to give them the viewing figures they wanted. It's all a pack 
of lies.

Why should I? Doctor Who is dead.

I did my research. See above. No one is watching Doctor Who because it 
ended in 2017. No one is watching Doctor Whoke either. The cinemas were 
all empty. It's the equivalent of Amazon pretending people actually 
watched The Boys, My Lady Jane, and Space Cadet. They didn't.

Yes he did or Bad Wolf or the BBC did. It was a stupid publicity stunt.

No they didn't. Where is your evidence? The BBC booked the theatres and 
thus paid for all the tickets. It's an audience figure manipulation 
fraud. No one went to watch but it still counts as full rooms.

When was the last time a cinema reported what it pays in tax to anyone 
but the tax man? The cinemas reported nothing.

Yes they did. Anyone can book a cinema for a private screening.

They're no different to me watching The Boys on Amazon. Hardly anyone 
else watched more than 10 seconds of it or at all. See above. It's an 
advertizing scam.

So Doctor Whoke and the BBC would have you believe. Remember Isaac 
Newton is Indian. Remember Henry VIII is a black sub-Saharan African.

No. My gaming videos get more viewers than Doctor Whoke on Disney+.

No they were not. Only the BBC bought tickets. It's a scam.
