BBC aside..the amount of advertising saturating every other channel now is pernicious..years ago it was tolerable...now its adverts for 6 minutes once EVERY 11 minutes..watching a movie is practically futile..I may just turn the AV channel permanently on for discs..
a tv set in a home is merely an advertising hoarding..discuss..
(and no i don't spend all day watching tv..lol.) ![](/icons/s/2/eh.gif) |

Thought i wud just say here that what i was originally trying to say is that a tv set is now an advertising hoarding..i wasn't asking how people necessarily circumnavigate that fact. Obviously anyone sane would find some way..i love the mute button for instance..![](/icons/s/rolleyes.gif) |

first advert that came on some woman was talking about how her wrinkles make her look sad. i just laughed (and then went wrinkly). happy faces have wrinkles. tuned the rest of the ads out. |

And some people would like the BBC to become more like the commercial channels!
I'm so happy to pay my license fee for BBC tv etc, to keep commercials off. I don't pay for any other TV services via cable etc. |

Well, sadly all tv in this country will eventually look like channel 5 or 5 USA. Absolute rubbish tv..id say about 10 years once the licence is abolished and the "quality" commercial channels no longer have to try and resemble bbc2... ![](/icons/s/sad.gif) |
