If so, which do you watch?

I find GMTV filled with tripe for the most part, but the BBC Breakfast news is also so cringeworthy and biased it's ridiculous. BBC newsreaders' attempts to be amusing and cute little stories trying to pluck away at people's heartstrings *cue school kids voicing fed opinions* - Yuck I understand news can be slow, and if it's depressing news the whole time it's not great, but I want to watch news, not light hearted entertainment!

Maybe this is another reason why I should have Sky and not Virgin.. Sulks

I used to. If I did it would be GMTV or BBC News 24. I just checked BBC News website now instead when I get in to work.

GMTV is a bit of a wind up - do i really want to hear Penny Smith trying to be funny at the close of her news slot - no, she ain't funny.

Big grin

I listen to the Radio 1 news at 07:30 - just as I get into the car. After that it's my music all the way.

The undead surround me. Have you ever talked to a corpse? It's boring. I'm lonely. Take your life, David. Kill yourself...before you kill others.
