tbh she's reading news on a news channel, not setting out to entertain. And in any case, people only watch these channels for a few mins at a time, not all day as you seem to be doing.


I don't watch the ITV News Channel all day. I actually work mornings so the late afternoon is the same as an evening for me.

No i'm not falling for the deliberate missing 's' type of thread.......

PS The purpose of watching these news channels is to either catch up on the days news in a small chunck or to watch continuous rolling coverage of a developing story.

I have no problem in admitting that I am glued to the ITV NC today.

Thankyou! Just because people have 1000's of posts, why is it that they can treat other people with 201 posts like dirt?

Ah, that's ok then. I was getting paranoid for a second!

Where did you get that Luke quote from anyway?
PS I wouldn't take too much notice of comments on here - none of this is really real! lol
If we can't talk about the ITV NC in the ITV News thread without comments like that - where can we?

i wasn't aware that i was treating anybody like dirt - just pointing out that they isn't much scope for entertainment on a news channel. Sorry if there was any (unintended) offence.
