Amanda, I have never added a comment to a petition before, so please do read this, I know you're saying that all of us who've signed haven't seen your show and don't understand that you're not disrespecting Meredith. However, PLEASE stop and consider why, as Brits, (and many of us are parents ourselves) who still vividly remember Meredith's horrific murder and court case circus, and can only imagine the lifelong grief that Meredith's brave and dignified family and friends endure every single day, we're all so devastated that you would even consider that performance of this nature is acceptable. I believe you've already had books published giving your side of the story, so please show some moral fibre and do the decent thing as an adult, and mother of a daughter yourself, and show the respect for Meredith you claim you have, by cancelling your show. Thank you.
Alison supported: Stop the Amanda Knox 'Cartwheel' performance at the Edinburgh FringeMy mother was murdered by may step father, but due to police incontinence, the incinerated her clothes removing the evidence. Even the coroner stated this in his summary. So to have anyone think they can make fun of a person that has been MURDERED begs belief. My heart ❤️ goes out to her family and friends.
Paul supported: Stop the Amanda Knox 'Cartwheel' performance at the Edinburgh FringeI signed today to give Meredith a voice and as a female victim of violence. Change must happen.
Jackie supported: Stop the Amanda Knox 'Cartwheel' performance at the Edinburgh FringeOne wonders how Fiona Campbell can go from News, to apparently running a youth channel and then into a newly created role overseeing factual entertainment and arts. I rather thought those in charge should be proven specialists. The quality of factual entertainment is not as sharp as it was. Maybe that will change?
N supported: Create stronger scrutiny for BBC content and commissioningEntertainment is in dire straits. I'm sorry writing this, but Ed Havard... What has he ever done that has stood out or lasted? Nice man. I wish no ill will, but he's not a leader of entertainment commissioning. Also, wasn't that job meant to be based in Scotland or Manchester? Another job for a friend?? Kate needs to do much better. Will we be surprised if Chris Susman pops up in comedy?
Z supported: Create stronger scrutiny for BBC content and commissioningThings really do need to change. This oversight committee/scrutineer is much needed. I have just read the broadcast article about Kate’s silent revolution. What revolution?d
She’s brought in a deeply underwhelming director of entertainment, who now needs three new heads underneath him. We all know one is going to Michael Jochnowicz and the other probably to Clodagh. There’s still ten or more comm eds. It seems Chris Suzzman is likely to be manoeuvered into the comedy director job, else it’ll be a poach from the other broadcasters. It’s hardly a revolution. It’s the same old tired story. Commissioning keeps growing and bad decision after bad decision hammers the industry. I’m furious.
L supported: Create stronger scrutiny for BBC content and commissioningThis is an elegant solution to a profound systemic issue. Unfortunately, BBC content rewards mediocrity and offers too many sops. Numerous editors who failed, on grounds of merit to advance, get pay rises as unnecessary compensation. Favoured personalities get moved around big jobs regardless of suitability. Let’s not forget the Chief Content Officer role was created because Charlotte Moore was unsuccessful in her director general application. This is a role too big for any human. This is continued with the appointment of Matt Brittin, who may well offer brilliant new direction but seemingly has a real deficit in public service and broadcasting experience as BBC have highly paid role that did not previously exist in the deputy director general. These are ludicrously highly paid roles that in some cases should not exist and in others should not be operating at this expense to the public.
Roger supported: Create stronger scrutiny for BBC content and commissioningLindsay Salt gets £325,000???? For what??? Her drama commissioning record is not good. How can such a salary be justified? Likewise commissioning editors underneath her are getting exorbitant amounts. I’m stunned.
C supported: Create stronger scrutiny for BBC content and commissioningYou’re not alone — a community of supporters is ready to back you.
