    No thanks. I have Freeview with what, 30 channels? There's **** all worth watching on any of them. My father has Sky. He has about 900 channels. There's **** all worth watching on any of them either.

    Just when you think he's reached the pinnacle of stupidity, he proves us all wrong.

    Freeview does for me.

    I don't watch much telly as it is.

    And I certainly wouldn't prop up Rupert "the gayer" Murdoch.

    Aye, I pay for the Arab version out here and it's just as ****e. Only watch the football, some movies and docs. The other 863 channels are pointless.

    More than anything, I just watch Netflix or masturbate.

    I have Freeview. Don't watch much telly apart from Sky News (breakfast) and Bargain Hunt (lunch) but the other afternoon I searched the guide and caught the end of an episode of Lovejoy, the one where Brian Blessed plays the role of a rich businessman who is tricked into paying £4million for a fake Russian Icon. Most days More 4 shows two Time Team episodes plus Channel 4 shows Frasier in the mornings and ITV4 has Minder on most mornings then there are the afternoon broadcasts of Allo Allo on BBC2. How can you say there is nothing on?

    I have a deal with Sky that gives me everything on all their channels, broadband, phone... the whole shooting match... all for just over £100 per month.

    They provide me with no food however.

    I don't have anywhere near enough time to watch even 10% of the programming but I don't feel wasteful.

    I may have too much, but I'll take my chances because God stopped keeping score :)
