That doesn't make any sense!

 It was a failed publicity stunt. The BBC expected huge
numbers to take the tickets off it but no one did. The seats
were empty and the BBC has not pictures to show for it.
Nothing.

 Have you any evidence for this claim?

 I am not the one making the claim. The BBC is. It is therefore
the BBC who is obliged to provide evidence, not me.

 The BBC is claiming that “it was a failed publicity stunt”? Are you
sure? When did they make this claim? And why would they claim it
failed? Wouldn’t it be in their own interest to claim it was
successful?

 The claim we were talking about imbecile was that concerning the
cinema ratings as stated in the title. Do you understand English?
 

My claims are perfectly rational. Where are the bums on seats? I
want to see photos off full theatres with Doctor Whoke showing on
the big screen. Where are they? Surly, by now, fans would have
posted them all over social media, and the BBC itself. Real
pictures, not AI generated ones.

 Since you only trust random strangers on YouTube, try this:

 People who hated the episode when they saw it in the cinema.

 So if they hated it there can't have been many people there with
them. They probably all left before it ended if there were any others
there at all. But none of that matters as you shall see below.
 

(And if you’re gonna claim they’re BBC plants, then why didn’t
they say they loved it?)

 None of the people there count because the BBC paid to hire the
theatre so it counts as a full house even if not a single viewer
attended.
 Do you seriously think the cinema managers counted everyone actually
sitting there through the whole performance and sent the stats back
to the BBC? It counts as a full house because the BBC bought all the
tickets even when completely empty.

Do you seriously think the two guys (and their mates) that Blueshirt
posted links for WERE NOT ACTUALLY IN THE CINEMAS??
Bit hard to give reviews of programs they haven't actually watched .....
Oh, but hang on, YOU, Aggy, are always doing that, aren't you .... for our benefit, of course!!

Do you understand that this is how the statistics are always all
fiddled for publicity? The BBC have wasted licence fee payers' money
and should be condemned for it.
 

No, I thought YOU, Aggy, were supplying us with all the Stats we needed!!
