to think its "bad form" to watch television in teh day

[SuSylvester]

am stunned by you lot who have it on ALL DAY
wrigth stuff. richard and judy
all that crap
TURN IT Off
its uncouth

is it a working class thing?

no Richard & Judy anymore

Absolutely.

Country is going to the dogs.

And that's how Su sees it!

ok, so MNing all day is Ok though is it?

I agree
Never turn on TV until 5pm for DCs
If I turned it on mid day, i might never escape from the sofa
Weekend is different however, when it is acceptable to watch some sports or a film mid afternoon
Was crap as student though, but was lazy then

its for people who cant read a nice poetry anthology or arrange some flowers

obv a non-working working class thing

Here in Geneva we do not watch TV all day.

yes it is odd that. i can't even watch it when i'm ill. daytime tv = syringes on the carpet, upturned ashtrays and permanently closed curtains.

Oh dear

I don't think it's bad form. But it feels wrong. Daytime is for R4 or for TV if your are ill or a child. DH watches TV in the days for anything sport-related. He argues with the children over it at times. I retire to the kitchen for GQT and Weekend Woman's Hour.

I think that daytime TV is one of those things like lucozade, that is meant for the sick but has been usurped by those who aren't

I have a flower press

yes
oen step away from addiction - you got it fishie.
next hting will be ladders in your tights and coloured toilet tissyue

tv in the day is only when dying to make you want to go

i NEVER have it on.
its the beginning of a slippy slope - next thing will be a large flatscreen tv anda leather sofa

working classes don't wear tights

just trackie bottoms innit

ah yes the house of Nike aye

I like cash in the attic

I have a flatscreen TV and a leather sofa.

ooh yes a flat screen tv on the MANTLEPIECE shudder

lets not forget that for very many elderly lonely people the TV is their company - some dont speak to another soul for days

oh no
now they get the home service.

it's more than bad form. It's a waste of life

I agree. Watched some olympics highlights while DD was at school this morning and felt distinctly bad. Radio fine, Internet fine but somehow not television.

its seedy
and not naice.
