Bought this brand new house Five years ago, purchased a new flat screen tele thingy and fitted It into a hand made unit that we built Into the external wall, had the whole goddam room decorated and truthfully have never watched the bloody thing more than ten times, eight of those times were when the grandchildren turned up. I haven't had Sky since the day after we last got relegated from the Prem, I blamed the bloke on the phone from Sky for us getting relegated. Tried watching a few different things but they were littered with adverts, I'd find watching a self closing toilet lid more entertaining. The Missus used to watch strictly but she gave up years ago, the last time It was on In the background all I could hear and see Is some Woman who had just got booted of the show telling that Clod Winklepicker Woman what a fabulous time She'd had and how She loved everybody on the show and how everybody on the show loved her, dear me stop It FFS. Apart from that each to their own I suppose. |  |

Well each to their own but I don't like this assumption that you have to be "brain dead" to enjoy watching something just because you don't like it. I enjoy it, my wife enjoys it, my family watches it and my entire wife's family watches it - as do about 10m other people who have done for the last 20 odd years. Last time I checked all our brains were fully functioning. It is, in my opinion, by a mile the best live programme on television and has been for years. I don't particularly like dancing but I enjoy watching it. If you actually watch the whole thing and the whole series it is a fascinating insight into what training can do to you, on how bitchy people can be and sometimes it is just downright hilarious. That's even the case when it is presented by one of the worst live presenters of all time (Tess) alongside one of the best (Claudia). It is also often far too long and the obsession with skits or puns every 5 minutes is (I will agree with that bit) ridiculous. But yah boo sucks to you lot. It's a bit of fun. It's also largely harmless. It's had the odd QPR connection too - Seann Walsh, JFH and er, um. |  | |  | Login to get fewer ads

Out of interest - why do you think race around the world is brainless? I find it genuinely quite interesting to see them travel accross different countries. See a bit of culture as well. Im sure its rigged and they only show what they want but its better than Strictly, x factor and those shows which show nothing |  |

it's not for everyone, I quite like Strictly, I don't mind a bit of mad reality shows either to help switch the brain off after a long day at work. On Married at First sight at the moment which is entertaining |  | |  |

I didn't say that. I really liked the first two series and then they started to elimination stuff and it felt like it was becoming like all the others. |  |

I didn't say you did, Ted, I was referring to the thread so far where that term was used. No big deal anyway, I am not mortally offended, just find it perplexing that everything has to be so black and white. The view that if I don't like something = people who like it must be complete fools. Never quite understood that (unless a football team of course). I'm not particularly keen on music but I don't start or comment on threads declaring that everyone who likes it is an imbecile and that is, and this I do quote you on..."Dreadful processed shyte served up to entertain people who deserve to be entertained by dreadfully processed so called shyte talentless entertainers." Why not just comment that you don't like it? That you think it is rubbish. That's fair enough. Why denigrate those who do like it as intellectually inferior? That's my point. But it wasn't a particularly vigorous one, just passing some time avoiding working on a Monday morning. |  | |  |

Fair enough maybe sometimes I can go In a bit heavy with my responses to some threads. Like I said elsewhere I/we seldom watch the tele anymore It's mostly become repetitive nonsense and for me Strictly Is repetitive banal nonsense, Ironic that I have to still pay £174.50 per year for something I seldom (If at all) use. |  |
