Don't you love that justification from the BBC? "Other broadcasters do
it, so don't go moaning to us about it - other people do it too".

So maybe they should introduce adverts "in common with other
broadcasters" and do away with the licence fee.

The standard 'excuse' of informing the viewer which channel they are
watching is total nonsense. Just in case you may have forgotten there
is an info button which will tell you the time, channel and what you
are watching plus how long it goes on for etc.


And such information is also usually on-screen AS you change channel, so
their excuse of using DOGs for people channel skipping and "coming across" a
BBC channel is also nonsense.

If the BBC want to follow what other broadcasters are doing, maybe
they should look at the DOG on Men and Motors, a reddish, subtle
double M in the top right corner, the least intrusive one I've seen.

Agreed but then with M & M there is so little to intrude on...
