Blackpool: So, BBC Breakfast aired this segment about cleaning the chandeliers at the Tower Ballroom, and folks were not having it. Viewers jumped on social media to share their annoyance, saying things like “no one is interested.”

On that Tuesday morning, reporter Jayne McCubbin was at the venue, explaining how they maintain those fancy chandeliers. She mentioned that this cleaning happens every January, but this year had a twist.

Jayne hinted that there was more at stake this time around, adding a bit of drama to the usual cleaning routine. She joked about the potential for comedy, referencing the classic show “Only Fools and Horses.” It was meant to be entertaining, but many viewers didn’t see it that way.

Operations Manager Alan Edgar also got in on the action, explaining how delicate the cleaning process is. Those chandeliers are made of over 10,000 pieces of Italian crystal, so they have to be super careful.

He mentioned that they were lowering the chandeliers live on air, which was a big deal since they were changing the central rope for the first time in 50 years. That’s some serious history!

But despite all the effort, viewers were quick to voice their displeasure on X. One user called it “utter banal drivel,” while others echoed the sentiment that no one cares about chandelier cleaning.

Some even questioned the newsworthiness of the segment, asking if this was really what they wanted to cover. It seems like the cleaning of some lights just didn’t cut it for a lot of people.
