In my own home I don't watch live television or iPlayer.
You can watch Netflix, prime, YouTube, etc so long as it's not live without a TV license FYI.

What about the rest of your family though?
I bet you have a sneaky glimpse once in a while - hand on heart, you watch no TV?

I don't have time to watch tv Mon-Fri; I work 9-5. Make dinner from scratch and consume between 5-6. Play with 1 year old, bath and put to sleep between 6-8. After 8; I have 3 hours to myself every day until 11pm which is usually bed time. During that time I have Xbox, gaming pc and podcasts. None of my tv's are connected to an aerial or satellite. I'd much rather stream a movie or tv show.
Wife is same as above apart from after 8pm she catches up on her housework, beauty routines and netflix (using her parents sub).
What is their on live tv worth watching?

It allows him to be a horse racing expert and amaze his mates by picking the winner every time.......

He can’t be an expert in everything. Those people are called wivesScubaregs said:[ref]mgrlane[/ref], The problem is this person proclaims himself an expert in every thread he posts in. Had this been a one off I would have been a lot less sceptical.

What is their on live tv worth watching? For me it's football and for that I go to my dad's house and watch it with my dad, his brothers and my brother, the whole family together (well the guys anyway). He lives 5 minutes away by car. Alternatively one of my best friends lives behind me and is 3 mins away walking distance. So weekday games I will catch at my mates house and weekend games at my Dad's house nothing else on TV I want to watch, I can get news clips and everything else off YouTube anyway.
The wee man has an amazon kids tablet and he is fine with youtube; sesame street is solely on youtube now, super simple songs is another favourite. Alternatively Julia Donaldson stories and animations are all on amazon. So he doesn't watch anything on live tv of iplayer either at home.
So, I have to ask what do you watch on TV? Eastenders, coronation street, etc. Don't get me started on love island, towie, big brother, etc. You can keep all that crap. The 3 shows I used to watch many moons ago were all ruined by PC nonsense; Top gear, Have I got News For You and Mock the Week. Only thing I'm interested in is the football and that's sorted by a short walk or drive.

Yeah well it's only just round the corner to his Dad's to watch the football.Scubaregs said:ronk said:When do you have the opportunity to go for a drive in your Z?
He did mention once, very short journeys with hard braking and acceleration.
