Its the quizzes for me too.

I have a feverish cold so I'm going to bed after University Challenge. I don't care what else is on tv.

I like football, especially on Saturday when Football Focus is on. Although I am not watching football tonight. I don't like rugby, which was on for days on end on ITV at one point last year.

I've missed Only Connect!

Ahhh...the FA Cup, of course it is! Essential viewing apparently, and a reminder from me that he hasn’t actually finished tidying the kitchen after dinner wasn’t welcomed with enthusiasm for some reason.

There’s more to do than watching the TV ? surely !
It is the F A cup btw smile

Me toorockgran can’t watch any of it - Wimbledon, snooker, athletics, horse jumping, netball, football. Give me a film or a documentary any day!

Some cup or other. When isn’t it?
?

I cannot stand any sport. I wish I liked it as it constitutes so much television content. I'm glad we have catch up tv so that I can always watch old movies.

I agree. DH - who is not a football supporter as such - has been glued to the TV recently. What on Earth are they playing for this time, does anyone know?

BBC2 has 90 minutes of quizzes so I'm happy.

Evening all,

Just come through to the sitting room after supper, and find that from 7.30 until 10.00 BBC 1 are showing bloody football!

That's not what I pay my licence fee for. Fortunately Mr P isn't a football fan, so it won't be on here.

The rest of the BBC offerings for this evening aren't exactly inspiring either.........

Suppose I'd better get the tin helmet out and duck behind the sofa, and wait for those who are pro the game to start saying that there isn't enough football on tv etc.
