Think I must be invisible

My oh has previous for switching the heating off and going out when I'm still in and arguing over the tv remote but this takes the biscuit?
Eating dinner yesterday and I'm planning to watch something on tv later. He doesn't want to watch tv, nothing on, he's looked, and goes in another room.
My programme ends and I decide to try the new scandi drama. I tell him in case he wants to join me, no it looks rubbish he carries on reading.
After about 40 mins he comes in and says there's a film on another channel, changes it over and can't understand why I get in a bad mood.
What would you say?

Say something like- what the hell are you doing I was watching that. Why do you think you are more important than me?

Don't just give up for the sake of a quiet life, that what he wants, he wins every time. He sounds like an ignorant bully who treats you like shit. Make 2019 the year you make changes to make sure you are his equal, not an invisible irrelevance.

What would happen if you did the same to him?

He doesn’t think because you’re not important to him. I’d never do that to my husband! If I walk in when he’s watching something and I want to watch something on another channel I’ll just ask him to record what I want so we can watch it later.
