WRONG
Nige is the star turn on this year’s series of I’m A Celebrity, Get Me Out Of Here, with ITV for some reason ponying up well north of the cool million mark in order to secure his attendance Down Under. And rather than give him a brief mention and point out that he’s a spiv and a congenital liar of no known principle, The Great Guido has sung The Great Man’s praises.
So it was that readers still awake were told at 1059 hours this morning of “Farage’s Jungle Challenge Debut”, with those chez Fawkes gushing “Farage’s debut on I’m A Celebrity last night didn’t fail to entertain, as he was made to stick his head in box of snakes to win tokens. Farage wasn’t concerned about the challenge, joking he’s had experience with snakes before … in the European Parliament”. Laugh? I thought I’d never start.
But there was, sadly, more: “The GB News presenter said he hoped those who hate him will hate him a little less after the show, admitting he could understand why Hancock joined the show last year. Though not sure even a reality show could clear Hancock’s reputation”. Yes? Yes yes? Yes yes yes?
And then came the howler, made that much worse as it had already been rumbled an hour before. “Over 10 million viewed the show last night making it ITV’s highest rating of the year, and up by over 1 million viewers on last year’s launch. So much for the boycott from the left”. Yeah, take that Rotten Lefties™! Nige’s ratings are bigger than yours!! Nyah nyahdy nyah nyah!!!
But, as Captain Blackadder might have observed, there was only one thing wrong with the viewing claim: it was bollocks. We know this as another of those making the 10 million plus claim, Brexiteer Martin “Dipshit” Daubney, had sneered “I’m A Celebrity viewing figures peak at 10.3 million … ITV’s highest rating of the year … 1 million more than last year”. There was more.
“All thanks to Nigel Farage. Some ‘boycott’”! He even helpfully added a link to the ITV press release. But the bad news was not long in coming, as the Tweeter known as Otto English broke it to Daubs gently: “This press release is from November 2022”. Super TV had the right story.
“RATINGS [I’m A Celeb] returned to 6.95 million viewers last night - the lowest launch rating since SERIES ONE in 2002 … It’s down 2.2 MILLION on last year’s opener”. And the time stamp on that Tweet? 0959 hours. That’s a whole hour before The Great Guido. It appears that Daubney then deleted his effort. And the time on the Otto English Tweet? 1019 hours.
And even Adam Brooks, aka Essex PR, held up his hands, admitted he got it wrong, and conceded that the viewer numbers were down on last year. But while Twitter, X, or whatever Muskrat is calling it this week, is having a field day at “Dipshit” Daubney’s momentary embarrassment, the Fawkes rabble does not appear to have been called out. Not yet, at any rate.
Good of them to remind us of their gold standard journalism. Or maybe not.

Anybody who watches that pile of rancid shite deserves all the contempt they get.
Guessing/hoping Nigel Fascist gets selected at every opportunity to take part in every 'game', getting more and more disgusting each time.
My suggestion would be retrieving 6 sweetcorn kernels from the camps cesspit using only his teeth as the rest of the inmates add to the pool - very eco friendly, using only recycled content. For extra entertainment there would only be 5 kernels... Not that I would be watching, can't stand those grinning, self-satisfied idiot presenters Agro and Dick.
Boycott? I am rather proud to say I have never watched more than a couple of minutes of that fourth rate program masquerading as entertainment.
The ratings have plummeted like the circulation figures of “Loaded” under the editorship of, er, Martin Daubney.
Why do I ever visit this blog?
I'd never heard of Martin Daubney, never watched GB 'News', had forgotten how monumentally dim a self-described 'Journalist for 28 years. MEP who voted the UK out the EU. Do some presenting on @GBNEWS' could possibly be.
Then, after reading this post and the comments after it, I foolishly had a look at this twat's X/Twitter frothings. Juvenile and moronic are descriptions he can only ever aspire to. Quite spoiled my afternoon.
Tim, please remember your responsibilities to your readers.
Ah, Bertie, don’t forget the time during the delayed Euro 2020 sportsball tournament when he praised a couple of England players for not taking a knee. Having utterly failed to notice that England were in their change strip that night and the players he was lauding were Romanian and therefore filthy Euroscum.
How long does it take for you to write these comments you thick slaphead? You live in Crewe in a wank house. Your whole life is wank. You are not smart. You are friendless. Your colleagues laugh at you behind your back. Dorries felt sorry for you. Guido calls you the tick. You are a waste of life. Tommy Robinson had you outed as a troll and when you fall off your perch that is how you will be remembered. Why carry on? Noone reads this wank. Care home awaits Paul.
Don't tempt me, Mr L. If I know he's going to regularly provide entertainment of that sort of quality I might find myself dipping into his posts more often.
Anon at 1131 seems terribly angry. Perhaps this is driven by a lack of research, which may in turn result from all that wanking.
Sad, really.
Absence of vocative comma.'Wank' used as an adjective. Familiar with the thougts of 'Dorries' and privy to the secret behaviour of Tim's colleagues. Hobknobs (or possibly just knobs), with Guido.This person is an insider!
And a philosopher: thinks Tim is a waste not of *a* life, but of *life itself*!
Has such an empty bile-filled existence that he's driven to ask himself 'Why carry on?' and ultimately realises the pointlessness of his rant with the desolate conclusion that no one is listening to him:'no one reads this wank' And I'm sure that no one ever has.
But *we* do, Anonymous, we do. We're listening to you. And we care. Thank you for sharing.
And do give our love to Paul, 'Tommy', Nadine, Tim's 'colleagues' and all your other imaginary friends if you see them.
Venceremos!
A cry for help from from Martin Daubney?
Or a defensive overreaction from his mum?
It was ITV's largest audience of the year:

I don't know why I am replying, as we all know anonymous is Bertie, but it was significantly down on last year's ratings.
That's the rub.
We don't know either, Mark.
There are five Anonymice on here. Can they all be Bertie?
Actually, I did think Anonymous at 11.31 might be you, writing in role. You know trying out a new character. Very creditable if it is you. It has the true demotic stink, as you'll-know-who might have said.
