.. and there was me thinking what terrible programmes on tv for a saturday night

[Jimgym]

There are some very interesting programmes on Sky Arts and also BBC4, jewels amongst the dross I find!

Well I thought my recent thread about the invention of the digital camera was interesting, but I was alone in that thought. I share your pain.

I agree fully. I don't watch much UK TV due to the dross, but have seen some great things on Sky Arts. It's a shame so many people seem to stick with soaps and "reality" programmes, and don't venture further. Thanks Austin7 for raising awareness.

Well, if I can work out all the confusion (for me) of which TV supplier/broadband supplier to go for, I will no doubt join you all in your perusal of the black box.....

It was interesting Dominic....next time at least I can give a like TV is pretty dire at the moment...it is that time of the year! But I am sorry but neither Eric Clapton or Joe Cocker does it for me...

And I guess you don't like England Lost or Gotta Get a Grip from Mick Jagger either

The beauty of having 'Catch up' and two recording devices is that you can use them when there are programmes on that you find boring. The most interesting programmes for me are those that appear on channel 9.

[Firefly]

I usually find something of interest on 'Discovery', but I'm not sure if you receive this in Cyprus.

We can get the Discovery channels on a Mag box, which is what ourselves and a lot of people are using now..

[Firefly]

Good news then Trevor.
