April 2010 - a review

Volcanic Ash -
Eruption - I Can‘t Stand the Rain was a hit before we had all heard of Umbrella. The group name rather than the song title is most relevant

Perhaps the French should have re-opened Sangatte to deal with the queues at Calais

I agree with Nick, this should be on the advertising hoardings!

Bigot-gate

I guarantee 4th

ITV- Programmes are better

ITV's programmes are improving but viewers need to read the schedules! I happened across Season 7 of Monk on ITV1 on Saturdays at episode 2, thanks to reading a tv listing. Fortunately, these can be seen on itvplayer. When new seasons of US/Cult programmes happen, ITV need to let us all know! We know Dollhouse is on as it was regularly promoted on ITV4.
The IPL was excellent - although you could see the lull in games mid-way through the tournament. The other thing about the IPL was the top calibre of cricketer - apart from the world T20 cup-winning Pakistanis. What other cheap top-notch sport is out there which can be broadcast live on ITV4? May I suggest the Australian (Rugby League) State of Origin series as I believe Sky have not purchased these yet?
