Broadchurch had an onscreen message after the end credits saying that the show will return. I don't think that had previously been announced?

Love how the oh-so impartial BBC lead on the single complaint about ITV rather than the couple of hundred complaints about the Boat Race or couple of thousand about a misjudged Comic Relief sketch.

I'd say that a ruling that has led to a meeting with ITV is more important at the current time than an investigation into a BBC sketch being launched after the widely reported complaints, and a relatively small breach with something mostly outside their control.

The report found an interview with actress Patsy Kensit included several mentions of diet firm Weight Watchers, which she is paid to endorse.


Was anything done about Pauline Quirke's interview on This Morning where she mentioned Lighter Life (which she is also paid to endorse)?

It would depend how much she mentioned it. There is nothing wrong with an interview covering products that the interviewee is paid to endorse, most interviews are based on the interviewee promoting a product of some kind.

Surely it's more offensive to suggest a sitcom about a gay couple is offensive than to air a sitcom about a gay couple?

The critics are split but they always are but I've been reading good things about Vicious especially from numerous people on forums who attended filmings for months now, and I really do hope Vicious and The Job Lot do work out for ITV as comedy on prime time ITV is long overdue.

How long has ITV had competitions where you can not only enter by calling an 0901 number or visit the website, text in, but now enter via a PO Box in Derby? I know Channel 5 have been doing it for a while, but noticed it last night on Tipping Point and had never noticed before.
