in Praise, vent & warnings
The wife is watching Over The Rainbow on BBC1 and I can't believe that our licence fees go towards making such rubbish.

I must have missed the bit in Wizard Of Oz where they sing Shania Twain and Michael Buble songs.

Sorry, rant over :D

    Totally agree!!

    Nearly as bad as ITV axing the Bill yet continuing to show utter twaddle like I'm A ( has been ) celebrity and all those trashy shows with Ant and Dec.
    (c) Broke in Yorkshire. ( there are worse places ) :D

    Those that matter don't mind and those that mind don't matter!

    Couldn't agree more.

    I've just seen that after this rubbish they've managed to make the lottery show nearly an hour long so it get's worse.
