Same with TV, they are going head on with SKY and ITV and they don't have the resources, better to introduce some new nationwide channels (e.g. sports) and make the programmes that people do want (Like your quizes)
And of course the annual plea from the govenors for a licence fee increase..........why

What they could do is just show the games, even my football mad nephew gets fed up of the pre and post match commentary. Then they could also stop showing repeats of soaps and other programmes when you count how many times they show each programme now it's ridiculous ! All channels do it too not just BBC.

Re: We should have a Sports Channel
I thought all the ladies tuned in to watch the foreign tennis stars in their tight shorts. I noticed that today at Roland Garos, Djokovic was looking very pert in his bum huggers , surprisingly Nadal was wearing Victor Silvester's (loads of ballroom), does this mean he is loosing tone in his derriere ?10-06-2014, 01:15 PM
