Even staff who used to work for the BBC are slamming the “biased” presenter.

Fiona Bruce has been slammed by an ex-BBC staffer for making its flagship current affairs programme Question Time “unwatchable”. Author Lucy Brazier, who began her career at the BBC before pursuing a career in ghostwriting, took to X last night to fume over Bruce’s “aggressive” manner on the show.

She wrote: “It’s called Question Time. The format is supposed to be that the audience ask questions and the panel answers. Fiona is meant to moderate. Week after week, she interrupts, talks over people and aggressively pushes her own agenda. It’s becoming almost unwatchable.”

Other fans chimed in to share their thoughts, with one writing: “She made it unwatchable. I gave her a month, it’s sad to hear she hasn’t improved.”

“It hasn’t been watchable for 15 years, even when David Dimbleby was hosting and he behaved in a similar way to what Fiona Bruce is,” another echoed.

However, one fan fumed: “I don’t think I’ve ever seen Fiona Bruce remotely ‘aggressive’. If it’s unwatchable, you know what to do.”

Bruce was slammed on the show for “constantly interrupting” Green Party MP Sian Berry as she attempted to explain her party’s stance on NATO.

She began by asking: “The Green Party used to be to come out of NATO. Then I was listening to your leader Zack Polanski, just in January, and he began by saying that Green policy was to reform NATO from within, but he then went on to say, ‘but it can’t be, because of Donald Trump’.

“So step two, as he put it, which is what he was suggesting is where we are now, is to look at an alternative alliance with Europe, Brazil, Mexico, countries from the global south.

“So just translate that for us, that means not going along with NATO if we’re now at step two, as he puts it, and actually forming a different kind of alliance.”

Berry attempted to respond: “I mean it is a very very well worked out and pragmatic policy that we have-“ but was cut off by Bruce, who pressed: “But have you described that correctly?”

When Berry said: “We wish to stay within NATO, we no longer have a policy to withdraw unilaterally from NATO. We want to pursue other alliances as well. This is the same position as the Canadian prime minister-“ she was interrupted again by Bruce, who continued to talk over her during the fiery segment.
