Just noticed a similar thread on the footie side which Admin (blessings be upon them xxx) have just moved over 'ere to the EE side, so we've now got 2 threads running on this. On the other one we reckon that as it's the BBC Peter Coates will mostly be ignored all night, will be left to the very last and then only given 10 seconds to speak whereas the rest of 'em will get 30 minutes. I blame Kitson.........

I guess the polls will be closed by the time the show goes out but we won't know the result which might be a bit odd if anyone is talking about the by election. I don't suppose any of the main Stoke candidates will be on. Not sure. Farage maybe. Do you think we'll get a heavy hitter like Patrick McLoughlin or John McDonnell? Eddie Izzard anyone? NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO................

Any chance of the audience breaking into a couple of choruses of Delilah??? - THAT would be worth seeing!

Wait, wait! 'Ere's another one for the audience, if the panel don't give Uncle Pete a fair crack o' the whip:
♫ ♫
Who's yer father, who's yer father, who's yer faaaaaaaather, Dimblebyyyyyyyyy? Y'aven't got one, yer a b*st*rd, yer a b*st*rd, Dimbleby! ♫ ♫
To the tune of 'Clementine'. We used to give Vic refs a dose of this every week back in the day when they got their decisions wrong…..

Yeah, I reckon you could be right about Farage - given the local interest, UKIP will have to field someone fairly prominent you would have thought - maybe Carswell? Be interesting to see who Labour put on - again, given the local interest, I would expect someone prominent - McDonnell is a good call too.

Dimbleby:" On the panel tonight, some bellend called momo from the Stoke fanzine 'The Oatcake' By and large I agree with most of the things he says but this was a very well delivered gag 👍🏻

How does Question Time select its audiences?
The short answer is: with great care.
People apply through a phone number given on the programme or via the website.
They are then questioned about their views, voting intentions, background etc, in much the same way as an opinion poll.
From that, the producers select a broad and balanced cross-section.
If, from those applying in a particular area, they feel any group or view is under-represented, they will - occasionally - contact local groups to encourage their members to apply to be in the audience.
Has anybody on here applied ? I hope we see a loud audience with some probing questions.
Coates is of course a staunch Remainer so his views now will be particularly interesting.

Coatesy's the 'local rep'. I don't suppose there'll be a Scottish/SNP figure. Maybe Ruth Smeeth or Rob Flello..... Paul Farrelly ??

Or, "From that, the producers select an audience that represents a certain point of view broad and balanced cross-section." You're asked how you voted in the referendum, how you voted in the last GE, age, sex, ethnic background and what your first question topic would be and what your second question topic would be.

If so they should stick him next to a Tory. It'll be like the exploding head scene from Scanners. They should stick him next to Peter Coates-who then pulls out at the last minute,and Scholesy takes his place.

At least until they threw me out.

The QT audience has always seemed to have a left-wing bias to me. I suppose it's easy to answer the qualifying questions dishonestly. What's a balanced cross-section? Does that mean that in SOT (for example) the Brexiteers should outnumber the Remainers 2:1 in the audience? I suppose it should, in order to reflect the area that they are broadcasting from. Otherwise, what's the point of taking the show on the road?

The audience should reflect the locals with the panel being the ones touring around the country meeting the natives. Along with Uncle Peter, Justine Greening PC MP (Con) Secretary of State for Education and MP for Putney is on the panel. Any Leftie teachers in the audience

I think it's pretty obvious that it'll be filled with purple-haired students who'll be talking about 'racist this', Islamophobia that', 'we love EU the other'. Then when Labour are leading in the polls it'll all be about how this proves without any doubt that the British people have rejected Brexit & we need a second referendum blah blah blah.
There'll nodoubt be a few 'plants' in there aswell to stand up & say something like "I voted for Brexit 'cos I got hooked in by blaming immigrants for eveything, but now I've seen how wrong I am & I regret my decision oh so much, I wish I could go back & vote again so I could vote Remain, I love the EU".

Coatesy's the 'local rep'. I don't suppose there'll be a Scottish/SNP figure. Maybe Ruth Smeeth or Rob Flello..... Paul Farrelly ?? It's not actually done 'live' so to speak. My brothers wife wrote in a couple of weeks ago. They live in Rochford near Southend and it's done purely on a first come first serve basis. She was asked to be there for 7pm. Dimbleby then walks through what will happen throughout the evening before filming started at 8pm. He also cracks a few jokes and asks people to do ' show of hands' to a series of questions to get an idea of the audience demographics so to speak.She mentioned that he's got a VERY dry sense of humor with very little time for politicians and pompous people funnily enough. What we see is largely uncut APART from if anything really does get out of hand but they give themselves just a little time for editing just in case.

Actually I should have remembered that as my sister has been on and asked a question in the past. She said it was slightly edited. So no discussion about the by-election as the polls will still be open or is it allowed as the broadcast goes out after they close? Not sure. Means I'll have to be in the Glebe for about 4.30 then

Do calm down, mate. Anyone would think Leave lost the referendum. At least wait until stuff actually happens before getting upset about the bloody Muslamics and the fucking young people with their hair dyes and their cunting opinions. It's clearly stressing you out unnecessarily and you're negging everyone else out with your fake news

And a new world record - somebody is pissed off at how biased a BBC audience was on a show that will take place in six days. Excellent stuff - can anyone beat that?
I for one am very fucked off at the blatent BBC bias when they reported on the nationalisation of postboxes in 2021. I'll never forgive them for that.
