Re: BBC (R) Repeats
Its why i gave up TV when it went digital. Also too much space to fill with 24 hours of programs, repeats and remakes are needed.Lets go back to less TV hours, like in the 60`s. Get folks active again, kids could learn about how to entertain themselves again or dare i say it go out and play.
I blame it all on Coronation street, bliddy Ena Sharples and crew destroying the minds of the nation.

Re: BBC (R) Repeats
As I understand it, broadcast companies are obliged to add (R) after the film/programme title if it is a repeat of something having been shown on that channel before. I don't know the time period, though. Perhaps if it has been many years since last shown, they may not need to do that.I have noticed many times, though, that the sneaks get around this by showing the programme on a different channel. I have seen a number on BBC4 that I have seen recently on BBC1 or BBC2, and don't get me started on the amateur channels, especially Channel 5.

Another thing that REALLY annoys me is when a programme is described as Brand New when it is actually series five episode 28.
