Channel 4 don't show it, Five don't show it, even the BBC dump it on BBC2
Anyway, if they were showing it, nobody on here would watch it, well except for 2 mins to get the opinion that it is rubbish, and if everybody did that, that's why they aren't continuing to show it


You're being a bit presumptious there - I know I'm not the only one who prefers ITV for coverage of events like this.


I wouldn't expect C4 or Five to show it - there duty has always been to provide alternatives to events like this when the BBC and ITV are showing them!
