The BBC proms etc

The evil? James Murdoch and his smarter sister referred to the BBC's encompassing reach.  One example is the (posh peoples's?) Proms.  Over the decades? it has become on the BBC, the BBC proms - apart from I presume the last night...

The Olympics coverage, I thought was so-so.  I did not have enough smartphone or web access or time to enjoy it.  They do need to work on the commentators and trackside though. One thing that the Australian NRL has tried to do is to ensure that ex-players get media training in their future television deal.  If this includes camera work, directors floor managers, work outside of sport  etc then this would be clever.  If it is just more talking heads on RL then it is doomed to disappoint.

One of way improving RL and for that matter Union is to get rid of the kicking tee and sand.

Also, the ratings seem to confirm that people do not want to go below 4 on the Freeview channel settings.

Will there ever be a US television programme getting rating for Dallas first time around in the UK?  No.

The Voice UK.- there is only one Adele and to try and find another one is always going to end in failure.  As would trying to find an old Mick Jagger or Madonna.
