    There are certain companies I'd like to see commit to less irritating customer services access (phone menus!).

    That's a funny article ... full of inuendo.

    Hard times for US !!!!!! industry (be a bit pointless if it weren't)

    Hustler magazine publisher Larry Flynt and Girls Gone Wild chief executive Joe Francis issued a joint plea for Congress to pump £3.3 billion into the sector.

    Americans turn to entertainment for relief.

    Etc etc.

    Whoever wrote that article has a filthly dirty mind and quite frankly it's great.

    I have bolded some of the smut, just in case we have any puritan church goers on here. :D

    I have to agree! They made my life a misery for 2yrs.

    and Sky for charging to see the same programmes repeated over and over and over..............
