Yeah, noticed at lunchtime. Anyone know if you can get Men & Motors with a "free to view" card on Sky? Or am I going to have to fork out for loads of DVDs of the Professionals? I don't think I'll be able to live without the Monday night retro-fest....

Men & Perving is only on the basic package and above - i've got a free to view card and i get hardly anything apart from Bid Up! TV, Price Drop! TV and Buy This Tat! TV.
to be fair i've only got free to view as i rang up and called them bad words and they've cut me off - no matter, i was swipping over to cable anyway.

Scum bags, another reason to go back to dvd rental by post and chuck the freeview box in the bin.

i went from having loads of channels on sky, to less channels on cable, and then lost my remote so i can only ever be ar5ed to press the button on the front a few times - limiting myself to 5 channels really.
of those i watch 0 regularly. it really is curse word these days. unfortunately claire takes it personally if i don't at least spend some of the evening with her, and she chooses to watch mind-numbing soaps. i think i may 'accidentally' sever the cable wire......

Crikey, I was worried then, I've got Sky regular and in all honesty it's about the only channel I ever watch (I'm still OK though). TV is absolutely dire nowadays, aside from watching some ancient Police Camera Action on ITV4 yesterday I've not even turned it on this week. Even Men and Motors isn't that good now since they moved Professionals/Sweeney/Minder around to make way for Sweaty Nightclub Lasses UK etc. Or that really mundane fly on the wall New Zealand traffic cop show where all they seem to do is tell people off tying sofas onto the top of old Corollas. I had to get Sky Plus, not because there's so much on I need to record it, more that there's so little on I have to harvest episodes of World's Wildest Police Videos.

4 days into freeview ownership for vital research, yep its gone, thats good timing! Proplem is i'd heard that the ITV replacement was going to be a similar layout to M&M; Mens channel with birds and cars. Not so. This is tragic. we don't need more trashy quiz shows and bid off crud (my dads addicted to)! Well it certainly answers one question for me in my research.

it doesn't matter if it's a Morris Marina or a Toyota Celica - it's what you do with it that counts

I haven't got a telly. Result! None of these problems affect me. Likewise. No telly = more time for cars / pub / partner etc. (Not nessessarily in that order!) Can't stand TV - Oh, except for Top Gear of course, but most BBC2 shows are up on t'internet now. So what are the chances of the BBC now trying to enforce me to buy a licence to look at online content?!

I'm just as bad TBH, I don't post as much, but I do spend hours sat looking on here rather than actually getting on with stuff! That was a compliment to RR BTW, I love it here a bit too much at times!!
