I was at a loose end on Tuesday of this week, having run out of repeats to view on TV.
I turned to BBC1 and, having ploughed through the obligatory soaps, came upon their jewel of the evening.
Its prime-time offering was a presentation of two chaps removing a ton of rubbish from a flat, followed by another chap recovering a decomposing corpse.
Is it me? Am I a grumpy old man?
I am willing to pay my TV licence, but object strongly to being served up this kind of rubbish, literally, by what is supposed to be a public service corporation.
To serve up such items to a public who have no sanction seems to me verging on fraud.
Come on BBC, enough is enough. Get your act together or go commercial and see how many advertisers are interested in your offerings.
