Well different strokes for different folks (as I believe the saying

Yes, if it wasn't for News 24 and the occasional film (not so occasional
now I get Film4) I'd probably resort to running a screen saver on the
screen in the corner. Ok, there's an occasional programme I tune into
... perhaps 1 or 2 a week.

Of course we're a pretty weird collection of people here ... we're
almost certainly brighter than the average TV viewer (look at how
popular "reality TV" is), and have other more interesting things to do.
