I know, it is incredibly poor. Thank Goodness for ITV3 and NOWTV.

I don’t know, Easter Sunday looks pretty much the same as it always has been - religious programmes in the morning including Urbi et Orbi, afternoon family film, Songs of Praise in the evening.

It’s bank holidays where the scheduling seems to be less special than they once were.

So, a brief review. Oneness has continued, but with no new additions since New Year's Day. So, what is the point? Have the BBC just given up on everything? It seems to have done. Crying or Very sad
TROGGLES and Custard56 gave kudos

Had been thinking that very same thought for the past month. I'd love to read something good into it, but I think I would be disappointed!

Managed to watch a bit of morning telly today & watched Homes under the hammer etc (yes I know Confused ) & it struck me how professional the old but Classy BBC 2 presentation looks against the cheap, nasty, fleabitten wonky 'Oneness' rubbish.
It looks so cheap, tacky & unprofessional, I just wonder if BBC management is trying to downgrade BBC 1 as a channel.

The repeat ratings were a bit poor tbh, but it's mainly a contractual thing.

I imagine there's less need for them now really with many people having PVRs and the iPlayer being pretty universal.

They were being shown in graveyard slots towards the end, nearly always after midnight, and sometimes as late as 1am.

No announcement over ident into Green Party election broadcast... Was Mr Lydiate locked in the loo?
