I don't have to prove the BBC's claims. They are downright lies and 
deception. If the BBC wants me to believe otherwise let it prove them.

The BBC is making the nonsensical claims not me.

It's the BBC that makes stuff up to suit its agenda. Stop acting as 
their apologist. The BBC has provided no evidence whatsoever that anyone 
went to see Doctor Whoke being screen in cinemas. I'm not going to 
believe then until they do since I know that when you book a venue it 
counts as a full house when you pay royalties and for insurance even if 
it's completely empty.
