Did you not already use the BBC?

There is no phone-in here, there is no text a number, there is no panel of judges. I'm the one who desides who gets fired,
and I'm the one that ultimately desides who gets hired.
And Photek:
I don't like liars, I don't like cheats. I don't like bullshitters, I don't like schmoozers, I don't like arse-lickers and i don't like Channel 4. but i hate ITV even more.
They fill ITV 1-4. With second rate american crap, like Pop idol USA, soaps and reality tv. The uefa cup and champions league finals are ok, and the F1 but the football (soccer) commitary is dreadful. DAVID PLETT???? And Andy towsend and ally mcCoist. Give me Big Andy G any day. Tickabow son!

That’s extremely interesting stuff! It’s a very strong statement for these artists to say that what the multinational record companies are doing actually runs counter to their artistic interests. They could not have been more clear.

That message needs to be heard. In fact, I think we need a fresh look not just at DRM, but issue such as zone protection on DVDs, which have absolutely nothing to do with legitimate copyright protection. Still don’t understand how the recording industry got away with that scam.

olej24... I know what you mean about C4... its like the American channel!... oddly though... you wouldn't believe how much crap South Africans and Austrailians get from the UK.... Darling Buds of May?! Keeping up Apperances??!! DIY SOS!!! Changing Rooms! No wonder the whole world think Brits are deranged!

As for F1... yeh the coverage is commentry is crap... bring back Murray Walker! As for footy... tell me your not a City fan? I still cant get the thought of Delia's half time booster talk out of my head.... pha ahaha!


everyone else... write more snotty email to C4 from every email account you have! This is gonna be mission from now on!

You might like this. It'll answer your question.
Who do you support Coventry? or maybe a birmingham club which will be playing championship football next year, you'll like it.

I could only stand 1 second of it before I closed the browser window!

As for me and football....... I once supported Liverpool (in the days of Walsh, Rush and Johnson) but I haven't followed footy in years.. If I was going to support any team it would be Lincoln City (dont laugh!)... coz that was where I was born/raised.

Given the choice of sport to watch I would go for Skateboarding or Snowboarding... but they get no air time on teresteral TV!
