I've finally got access to UK TV which is brilliant. However, in between the episodes of Sweeney, Minder, Professionals, Morse, Lewis, Frost, Midsomer Murders, Vera and so much more that I am loving very much are the adverts which I am not.
FFS - donkeys, dogs, African orphans, funeral costs, wills, cats, old people, lonely people it never ends and they *all* want money.
Now I am all for charity, I run one myself. And I am aware of the challenges of fundraising. But FFS, all afternoon every afternoon. And early evening.
I suppose it must work. And I can only assume that ITV's advertising revenue thrugh what is essentially cheap programming makes it worthwhile for them.
But it's spoiling it for me.
