I watched Saturday Night Takeaway because I always love to watch that on a Saturday night. I did record Doctor Who on DVD so i'll probably watch it tomorrow evening.
I'm surprised at all this fuss, here and in the papers etc, who will watch what, which will get the higher ratings etc
Are we saying that it is so rare these days for BBC1 and ITV1 to have half decent programmes on at the same time, that there needs to be all this fuss?
I don't know about other people, but it's the ultimate battle between trash television and intelligent, well made television. That is why it's important to a lot of people.
When the ratings come in we'll know if there is still an audience for thought provoking television these days.
