Edit - Sorry I meant Bargain Hunt (thanks 20s).
Todays episode, on right now, also can be viewed on I Player.

Bargain Hunt says a lot about modern Britain. I’m not sure what but it does. It’s like an ISIS beheading video for the idling classes..
 
Sorry folks, in my haste my brain malfunctioned….again 😎
It is indeed Bargain Hunt I was pointing you towards. Good publicity for the town I thought.

It’s light typical daytime TV but something we watch whilst eating lunch on days we don’t work. It’s the only daytime barring the news we watch. 😵‍💫

I’m with you on all of that apart from the news. I stopped watching that a couple of years ago.

It’s abysmal, the last word in inanity. Quite how it has lasted for 30 series can only be explained by the imposition of a forced subscription model. From the irritating music to the introductions of the dullards who take part, the landfill they buy using license payers money, all the way through to the final humiliation at the end where the hapless contestants are forced to kick their legs in the air, the whole dismal experience fills my nose and throat with bile. Just remember every piece of trash they buy represents a person who has been imprisoned for not paying the TV tax. A decorative piece that might appeal to both dog lovers and corkscrew collectors is a person thrown in chokey for not paying the licence fee, a single mother say. That delightful sliver hedgehog pin cushion with a Birmingham hallmark is an OAP shivering in a dismal flat, too afraid to put the heating on. It’s dross. I would rather look at a blank screen than watch such fatuous garbage.

I was once before I realised the sole purpose of daytime television is a kind of softening up exercise designed to prepare a section of the population for collective manipulation. Persuade people to freely give up their spare time to watch scruffy people from Yorkshire buying bric-a-brac at some dismal car boot sale and you could persuade them to do anything. It’s brain rot and although I’m not one for banning things, I think on this occasion an exception should be made.
