Being over last week I got the chance to watch a bit of telly. Anyone who stays with my parents gets to watch a lot of TV...Some thoughts:
- the 10 o'clock news on the BBC was almost hysterical about Swine Flu. What has happened to British resolve? Totally over-the-top.
- DIY SOS has to be the sorriest sack of shite I've seen for a long time. An appalling presenter with a crappy estuary English accent. Builders who thought they were feckin comedians. A single mother who couldn't afford to renovate her house. It was shit.
- What's happened to Nick Ross & Crimewatch? It took me years to get over Sue Cook leaving but no Nick Ross? Noone said sleep well, don't have nightmares at the end. Mind you, Kirsty Young is a cracking MILF. Loved the description of a wanted man from Portsmouth as an extremely violent man. We'd just heard how he smashed someone's face in with a knuckleduster. Cheers for the warning!
- Football Focus. I don't want to romanticise about the past because it was never perfect but what a lazy, tedious show that was. Lawrenson slouched on the sofa looking disinterested. It was the last weekend of the season for 3/4 of the league but all we got were a few minutes on Norwich and a brief summary of the potential ups & downs. Show some imagination and hunt out more interesting stories!
Apart from that, you don't know how lucky you are to have the BBC!
