bargain

[brionon]

BBC has just cancelled Bargain Hunt to make way for ?? Yes you guessed it-more blooming Tennis. There is only 15 hours and 35 minutes of Sport on BBC 1+2 today.

I'm more annoyed that they've removed Eggheads, while this rubbish is on.

Which half would that be then ? Fifteen and a half hours of Sport ? They need to cancel progs ?

[brionon]

PS. You think patting a ball about is IMPORTANT ?

What annoys me is that it's on bbc1 AND bbc2!!

13:54 So do you disagree that the tennis attracts more viewers than Bargain Hunt?

So would a public hanging;mate.

Hanging was banned in the 60s, actually, but that's beside the point really. Okay, so they cancelled Bargain Hunt for the tennis - it's only for 2 weeks of the year for goodness sake - and take my word for it, I'm not avid tennis fan, I just think that for those who are they should get full coverage for 14 days.

For that matter all BBC afternoon programmes have been cancelled for the time being, for Wimbledon and Ascot and no doubt for the Olympics when they arrive in August. But on the bottom line it's only television, and the regular programmes will all be there again when the sport is all over.

I don't happen to like Bargain Hunt, but I enjoy the re-runs of Diagnosis Murder, et al, but I'm afraid in the real world Wimbledon is more important. That's life!

The point is {yawn} that 'Bargain Hunt ' was advertised to be on and it was cancelled. It's back on today. The disappointment came in turning the TV on to watch the ADVERTISED prog. GOTIT ??

[brionon]

Wether it's good or bad is beside the point-it was cancelled after a minutes warning. I bet you watch 'The Apprentice'' don't you ? Designer rubbish for designer minds. But you have the right to like rubbish,AS DO I. Gotit now ?
