Ok yeah, I have RAGING pmt, but I fucking despise ITV. It's just run by cunts and watched by cunts. I'm sure it didn't use to be as bad as it is now? Daytime TV cunts, reality tv cunts. Cunt Factor. News at Cunt. As for the adverts...no win no fee, bingo, money shop, over 50s car insurance.

FUCK OF ITV!

YANBU.

Just get Star Wars on dvd.

I work for ITV a fair bit too and they are much nicer than the BBC if you do my job.

Haven't they won channel of the year recently? Some of the drama mentioned has been fab and of course it is a totally FREE service which no-one is forced to watch Grin

Whitechapel...

And wasn't Woof! on ITV??! My childhood would've been incomplete without it!

Darkesteyes · 26/10/2013 23:31

JustAnother If they put Samuel West in everything my tv would be permanently glued to that channel Halloween Smile

GeorgianMumto5 · 26/10/2013 23:34

Samuel West as in Timothy West and Prunella Scales' son? Who was Leonard Bast in Howard's End? What's he in?

MuffCakes · 26/10/2013 23:39

Noo I love celeb juice, everything else can jog on.

Audilover · 26/10/2013 23:42

Other than the odd champions league football match we don't watch itv at all in our house. We're not boycotting it or anything there's just never anything of interest to us on there that we want to watch.

Darkesteyes · 27/10/2013 00:23

Georgian hes done loads.

I hate hate hate ITV. But I like dinner date...

I cannot bear the live audience studio shows with swinging cameras and clapping crowds with their big baw faces and their going out tops on!!!

Viviennemary · 27/10/2013 00:31

BBC is worse with all their handouts of our licence money to their friends. And also points of view. When they read out the letters and more or less say well hard luck we've read your letters out and that's your lot. We're changing nothing.

GeorgianMumto5 · 27/10/2013 00:33

Well, well, well. Thanks, Darkesteyes.

MalcolmTuckersMistress · 27/10/2013 06:32

Oh each channel has it's strengths:

BBC1 - Dramas (news is SHITE - WTF??)
BBC2 - Bake Off
ITV1 - X Factor (Yeah I love it, what you gonna do about it? )
C4 - Documentaries and news
C5 - Umm...umm, well, there's...ummmmmmmmmm

HowlingTrap · 27/10/2013 08:08

joking aside, I can't believe you made a comparable comment between a poster and jimmy saville, an apology is in order.

ppeatfruit · 27/10/2013 08:23

Agree Howling That was a completely uncalled for comment.

There is the remote and none of us have to watch what we don't want to IMO adverts are useful because you can get a drink in the breaks Grin I love Strictly but it does go on and on and on......

MalcolmTuckersMistress · 27/10/2013 08:46

Oh for fuck sake. SORRY! Feel free to report it and I shall wait here for the ITV Police to come and arrest me.

NOBODY IS TO EVER MAKE JOKES ABOUT JIMMY SAVILE AGAIN! No one. And that includes mumsnet.

HowlingTrap · 27/10/2013 08:52

the thing is had some one made a rape joke of some sort would you have let it slide under the radar Malcom? genuinely interested.

On here you'd get torn a new one, no pun intended.

Howsuper · 27/10/2013 09:09

Malcolm - there's being 'dry/funny/flippant' and there's 'incredibly aggressive'. I'm not even talking about the Savile comment.

we dont have any ITV police malcolmtuckersmistress we could send one of our cunts over though ?

Mitzyme · 27/10/2013 10:18

No no. Try writing to the BBC to complain about racism on one of their programmes. I swear they have turned patronising into an art form.
They now are truly cunts.

Tallaween · 27/10/2013 10:47

My dad still has his Betamax. It still works too.

We didn't get a VHS player until I was nearly 16! (1995)

No sky either. I rember the excitement of channel 5! A fifth channel!!

We used to watch Childrens Ward and Home & Away on ITV as kids. But we weren't big telly watchers.

I can't think of the last time I watched ITV now...

MalcolmTuckersMistress · 27/10/2013 12:40

lemonforyourlime as way of apologising for my earlier comments I wish to save your people the trouble of tracking me down, and I shall hand myself in at my nearest Cunt Station. Or as other people call it, "ASDA".

lemonforyourlime · 27/10/2013 15:49

We appreciate that MalcolmTuckersMistress and look forward to seeing you.

And and to show there's no hard feelings I'll see if we can look out a Loose Women DVD box set for you.

joydivisionovengloves · 27/10/2013 20:25

I don't watch ITV much but I do know they really shouldn't be allowed near football.
