This woman’s trolling of a beloved kids TV show didn’t go quite the way she expected and it’s today’s most satisfying thing
To the world of Twitter now – no, stick with us – where people have been talking about Children’s BBC show, Balamory, which will no doubt be familiar to many of you.
You may be less likely to know, however, that it’s just returned more than 20 years after the original series ended and by all accounts it was a roaring success.
#Balamory reboot a viewing success!
The show returned with 100k viewers watching live on CBeebies at 5pm – and then a record breaking 250k more on iPlayer, making it one of the most watched CBeebies shows ever within 24 hours on iPlayer! 🤩🌈 pic.twitter.com/LE995GUM5y

Congratulations to everyone involved.
And yet we regret to inform you that some people weren’t happy with it. And when we say some people we mean this person, who was clearly distressed that a TV show might attempt to reflect the audience watching it.
But it’s not that bigoted nonsense that got our attention, it was this woman’s response to the bigoted nonsense that really caught our eye.
And they got all the mockery they deserved.

Jacquie here is a good example of why society is so fucked up. Didn't even use her single brain cell before posting.

It's really funny cos not only is mull actually 77% Scottish but Tobermory is a tourist town they are 1 trillion percent the opposite of racist if they were a racist town there wouldn't be funding for the ferrys and the population would probably be a tenth of what it is

Ha ha ha ha!
Also, why exactly is she watching? What did she expect, Question Time?— Jude (@Judeemma) May 4, 2026
It’s screenshots like these that show just how moronic people are. The racists at the start…..jeez. I know Mull well and know the demographic but it’s pretending to be a fictional place like anywhere that has been a backdrop. Where they filmed Star Wars had zero Wookiees
