They’ve Removed The Television From The Surgery Waiting Room...

I visited my doctors surgery today and noticed a blank wall.... the television has gone.
What can this mean?

1. They never expect to have patients in the surgery waiting room, ever again?

2. They haven’t paid the Television Licence, or can’t afford it?

3. Someone has stolen the television?

4. Other?

Does your surgery have a television? Is it alive and kicking, or has it gone AWOL too?

No TV in my doctor's waiting room.

Art ... perhaps they're anticipating no queues?
The doctors will see patients on demand so fast they'll have no need to sit and suffer chronic daytime TV.

I wish they'd steal the TV from my doctors waiting room, it only shows Channel 10. The number of people in the waiting room probably triples their number of viewers.

Announcing anything on Channel 10 is like keeping a secret.

Our surgery used to have one but they had so many complaints from their patients about the mindless drivel on it - they took it down.

Now we are stuck with the mindless drivel that is Radio York, Minster FM and Radio 1.

Be careful what you wish for!!
