Unlike drossy soap operas, it's only for a couple of weeks, every four years, and there are plenty of other channels!

I agree about drossy soap opera's, except Emmerdale, never diss Emmerdale.......I hate football, rugby, golf, cricket. My husband loves football, rugby, golf, cricket, and he hogs the remote.....i just go and read a book in the bath!!

I don't like any kind of drama series that is aired on ITV or BBC yet they seem to take up most evening time slots and I don't sit around an complain about it, I read a book or we put a DVD on.

I like the world cup and I like that its on normal tv as we only have freeview because thats all our building allows.

Has it started then? Can't say I've noticed.

Wish I hadn't. don't mind the tv side but the downstairs neighbours are considerably louder on football nights... :mad:

Don't worry, once England are knocked out later this week, the English media will forget there's a world cup going on.

OP: You could play a drinking game to pique your interest - 1 shot/beer/wine every time 1966 is mentioned, you'd be too plastered to care 10 mins before kick off!

My favourite drinking game is "Oscar Pistorius"
Every time someone goes to the toilet, you all have to take 4 shots!

There is a separate radio channel for sport - it's called Radio 5 Live.

5 Live is not a sports channel, although they do have the main sporting events on it, the sports channel is 5 Live Extra on DAB
