    • @Memoquin1866
      @Memoquin1866 2 месяца назад +12

      It’s all about the rights.
      Those KN episodes are ten to fifteen years old, and reality shows typically have a short shelf life. That’s why Hotel Hell are starting to be uploaded on YT in full.
      Top Gear was owned by the corporate arm of the BBC, BBC Worldwide. The show is on hiatus due to one of the new presenters being very badly injured recently but I’m sure they wouldn’t be happy losing revenue if whole episodes were uploaded for free.

      It refers to two things; They had previously done a skit about another royal (Princess Anne), and the Reliant Scimitar, saying you can't mention the car without also saying "Princess Anne's got one of those". Princess Diana on the other hand was known for her work on landmine clearance. So it's kind of a double joke.
