Makes me feel a bit smug & chuffed, with my 'ancient' flat screen, that requires the action of a finger to press a button to change the channel :-)

When DH watches football he says some er, strange things..... usually about the ref/ump.

The SpyTV would get fed up with me.

I rarely watch the box........ I usually leave & do something else when I get to the stage of "What a Load of Rubbish"....... and various other words.
