I hate all the soaps with a passion, but there is something i hate even more than a soap.....and that's the scottish soaps.
In a scottish soap accent "Farquhar, go into the kitchenet and see if there is any bread in the breed tin". lol

I dunno man, River City is kinda engrossing in a weird sort of way.
I detest soaps as a rule, although I watch Eastenders (habit from childhood) most nights. There is something magical about that show in the sense that it's continued to attract a wide range of people for nearly 30 years.
^^TV has been slowing dying for me for a long time now........All i got left is Dr Who and a few decent docs a year.....No more Hustle, Harry hills TV burp has gone, Brooker has gone from BBC4, no Top gear till 2013 and no sign of HIGNFY or Would i lie to you.
All i can think of TV wise to look forward to are the return of Red Dwarf and The Kevin Eldon show.

There's still plenty of decent stuff to watch but there seems to be a lot of long gaps between things that are really good.

I don't think anyone thinks it will be as great as the original stuff, but I'm holding out hopes, probably shouldn't be.
I forgot about Sherlock and The 10 O'clock show.........i wonder if Jimmy Carr will return and if so what will he being doing seeing as he can no longer take a poke at all the other morally bancrupt scumbags that infest our parliment and banking system.
Should be intresting.

It's strange that I can watch German TV, at least ARD, (they also have a licence fee) on my computer for free in the UK. By the way very good if you are learning German as i am. The law in the uk is if you have any device that can recieve a TV signal you need to have a licence fee which covers your home. Detector vans were just a scare tactic they get there info from cross refrencing with the electoral roll.
