this, of course, assumes there is actually something worth
downloading. I had a quick look to see what was available and found
nothing I'd want to see (or see again)
IMHO apart from the occasional program on BBC4 there is next to
nothing on BBC worth watching and very little on any other channel.
Virgin Cable is nearly all repeats or rubbish so we actually watch
very little TV. I'd tell Virgin to take their STB away but then I'd
have no cycling to watch in the summer :(
