Yay! Cos all privatised channels that show high brow or educational programming have maintained their standards of quality and don't just show endless shows about ufos and nazis

Clearly you’ve never seen some of the bizarre stuff that C4 had put out over the years then?

Perhaps the thing to take from this is that people want to watch bizarre stuff?

Bring back Eurotrash I say !!! ;-)

That show was certainly an eye-opener for 12-year-old me.
That sh!t is bizarre ... why does that happen?
They make more money that actual quality programming.

Why was there lead in gas, why was cigarette advertising so huge, etc etc.

Sure, but the fascination with UFO's and Nazi's ... fri!cking bizarre.
