Lots for forthcoming programmes, that gets annoying, especially if its for programmes you have no intention of ever watching.

I think you'll find that's the news you've been watching. Now that is annoying. Huw Edwards or some such spouting the latest plot lines from up coming soap operas as if it is news. TBH another reason I watch very little television.

No, they compensate with weird and wonderful inserts that can be just as annoying.

I hate all the eco friendly carbon saving propaganda that has no serious basis - we pay for it.

Based upon one of the most irritating songs I have ever heard  cussing:

The universe is run by the complex interweaving of three elements. Energy, matter, and enlightened self-interest.

What is the point of that directory enquiries advert aimed at people with one big and one small eye?

How big (or small) is their target audience?
