Vernon Kay's New Bbc Show Widely Disliked by Viewers
First, never underestimate the power of a bad wig. Second, if you’re going to make a show about imposters, maybe don’t make the show itself feel like an imposter. It’s currently scheduled to air for six more weeks. That’s six weeks of Vernon Kay shouting, “Is it them? Or is it them?!” while you slowly lose the will to live.
But here’s the weirdest part: I kind of want to watch the next episode. It’s like a car crash on a roundabout—you know it’s bad, but you can’t look away. Maybe the BBC knows what they’re doing. Maybe they’re playing the long game, and by episode four, that Boris Johnson impersonator will have a fake baby and squeaky shoes. Honestly? It’d still be better than the news.
So grab a cuppa, turn on BBC One, and prepare to cringe with joy. Vernon Kay is waiting. And he’s not ready to stop. Unfortunately.
