TBH I so seldom watch ITV I won't notice their absence. In fact working it out I have only watched 4 hours of TV on any channel in the past week.

I did hear John Humphries gently taking the p*ss out of Micheal Grade about it all on "Today" this morning.
I used to have a handle on life but it broke.

There are few programmes I would definitely make the effort to watch and those I would record anyway so that I can watch them in peace and tranquillity . Without constant interruptions and flicking to see what was on MTV  evil:

However if I turned on the TV and any of those programmes were on I would instantly turn over.

So there may be more repeats on - will we really notice the difference. It'll be like Christmas every Day lol:

I thought it was all a bit too "Old Pals" to be a realistic grilling in the true Humphries mode.

My immediate reaction to the thread title was 'Miss D has found a clothes store chain is having a closing down sale'  whistle:
