What TV?
HD TV is fantastic. It's like a photograph coming to life in front of you... but who the hell wants to watch endless, mindless pap like Big Brother in HD. What can it possibly add?
Then there's the myriad sleb berks cooking, driving fast cars, answering dumb questions on game shows and sitting on the toilet... yuk.
The whole dumbing down of television is such a sad thing in the UK. TV here was the envy of the world, but now the gems are fewer and further between. Months go by before something worth watching appears.
I haven't watched television for over four years now. I watch DVDs and recorded documentaries/comedy/selected drama. We don't have an HD TV in our house and we're not likely to buy one for some considerable time.
I don't give a monkey's about the switch over. I'd rather go for a walk or a pint.
