I'm pretty sure British Television has never done me any harm.

I'd have bought one, but I have no desire to join 'Pinterest' to do so. Sorry.

UK TV is awash with mind numbing soaps, a staggeringly amount of 'Foodie' programmes, each having their own 'celebrtity' chef (how do they attain the sobriquet of 'celebrity', because prior to this, nobody has ever heard of them ?), programmes renovating/selling/buying houses, programmes containing the word 'celebrity' in the title, sport screenings, 'wannabe' shows ('X Factor', 'BGT', 'The Voice'), and a never ending supply of repeats.

And for this privilege, we have to fork out £134.50 per annum, which, whether you watch it or not, goes to the BBC.

Not even 'QI', 'HIGNFY', and 'Mock the Week' is worth that much cash.

P.S.

For the latest 'foodie' offering, ITV have now turned their attention to barbecues, with 'BBQ Champ' being shown this week.

aaarrgghhhh

Sounds pretty much like what we have to put up within Australia  - except we don't have to buy a licence,

At least you don't have to have "hoarders" inflicted upon your person..........
