What would we do without TV, Paul Merton in India, Stephen Fry in America, Bruce Parry in the Amazon great insight into the World, Strictly Come Dancing for sheer entertainment! Your favourites!!
I just watch the usual cr@p like EE, Corrie, and anything else thats on. I do like Bruce Parry, he's great. My favourites are mostly from the yesteryear like Blackadder, Red Dwarf, The Young Ones and others like that.
I agree with you about the travel programmes, they are great and you learn so much. My mum says she feels like she has been all round the world through her telly. I do admit to liking the soaps as a chill-out while I have tea. The best of all, though, was when the wildlife programme about tigers was on and that little 'rock' camera followed them about so we saw what it was really like in the life of that family of tigers - pure brilliance!
I have enjoyed the last couple of comedy/dramas on Tuesdays on BBC recently. Mutual Friends and Sunshine have both been well-written and acted. A joy to watch.
I am enjoying Steven Fry in America and also watched Charley Boorman Ireland to Sydney, Normally watch programmes like Cold Case, Without a Trace amd Criminal Minds. Very disapointed in Fringe, its tripe.
Spending more time reading than watching TV lately
Hi Mary,
I'm enjoying Stephen Fry too at the moment! Also the new 'Great cities of the world '( Gryff Rhyss Jones ) Would'nt mind reading Stephen Frys biography! New series starting tonight that looks interesting ' The dark side of fame' presented by Piers Morgan BBC1 10.35. Tonights guest Bruce Jones! Other T.V stuff I like...

I agree with Mary but not Strictly. I like Sunshine, last episode tonight. Fed up with Corrie, so corny. Michelle is always crying, I can't stand her and her shiny black hair .. yuk. Tired of X Factor now all the funny auditions are finished. Do we care who wins ? I think not. We'll never hear of them again anyway.
