Default BBC *******!

Not content with cancelling Grange Hill the anti-male gay ******* running
the BBC have cut 20 minutes off Children's programmes so that they can
screen that Weakest Link garbage from 5:15 until 6pm. WHY?!

Why couldn't these *******s have extended children's programmes until 6
which would have also given them a reason to keep Grange Hill on air (agreed
that when it moved to Liverpool it became unwatchable rubbish, but they
could have moved it back to London again.)

Well let's face it. TV without Grange Hill must be the biggest
improvement the beeb have made in years.


Would that make Waterloo Road the biggest retrograde step they've taken in
years? )

They lost Nieghbours so I guess they had to transmitt something. Those
that want childrens programmes they do have 2 for you right up to 7pm.

I don't really see the point of children's hour any more, now that
there are lots of 24 hour channels for them to watch instead.


There are even more women's programmes on BBC2, ITV, Channel 4, Channel 5
and everywhere else. Why do the BBC need to inflict them on BBC1 as we'll
and worse during the time reserved for children?

You'll find that children are getting less and less interested in broadcast TV
these days. How many kids have you got, and how old are they ?

You don't have to watch them.

Chill and go read a book or something instead.

Agreed.
Mine are boys aged 9 and 7 and they enjoy some programmes on CBBC. MI High,
Stupid, Tracey Beaker etc.
They also occasionally watch Jetix at grandparents, mainly because they
don't at home!

They hardly ever watch the main 5 channels, and when they were younger I
could control viewing in their playroom by leaving the Freeview box on
CBeebies and removing the Freeview and TV remotes!

Their viewing of TV is about 60-90 minutes per day, and I often find the TV
on and both of them doing something else.

There was something on C4 late morning today that said the same thing and how
they are having to change what they deliver to try and win back the audiences
that have little or no interest. Seems like a futile exercise to me.
As a result, the whole of TV now seems to be run (by and) for f*cking brats.
I really don't understand why this should be so, like many other things in
this God awful country.
