Which terrestrial channel do you watch the least?

[killer b]

channel 5, with probably bbc1 after. i watch corrie regularly, otherwise itv would be ahead of bbc1...

.that really stupid bingo type stuff they put on late is dreadful

They do that annoying Quiz Call thing on Channel 5 as well. Although it is quite handy for waking you up in time to turn over for Star Trek on a Friday night.

i have watched a few things on itv (dexter, pushing dasies), but i forget when they are on and their iplayer thingy is irritating, with all the bloody adverts and no way to rw/fwd. so i gave up on both those series in the end.

technically it would be channel five, because we can't get it - but i think it would be unfair to discount it for that reason, and also i would probably still be watching neighbours if we could get five.

Why can't you get 5?

I apologise unreservedly for the metropolitan bias of the poll options.

SBL- I thought the late night bingo and telephone quizzes had been scrapped?

Maybe they are just calling it something else now
I thought i saw something like that on there when i was flicking through the other night but i could well be wrong

reception, i think. we have a full range of freeview goodies, but none of the five channels, no matter how often i retune - with our old box and this one.

Unlike the other four analogue British television channels, the channel cannot be received via analogue terrestrial broadcasts in many areas, including some parts of the south coast of England, where the signal would otherwise interfere with signals from television stations in France, many areas of North East England, especially around the major Tyne & Wear conurbation, many areas in Scotland, most of Wales and parts of Cumbria

Not everyone has digital.

In which case, I am puzzled. I get 5 fine, and I don't even have an external TV arial.

(I do live in a 12th floor flat, with a TV mast in plain view, however).

we live in a kid of lower ground floor bunker - but not a basement flat as such. our external ariel is only about 10ft off the ground, though. Twas like that when we moved in. and tbh - it's only channel five - who can be arsed?

Ive just checked and both channels have late night quiz bollocks scheduled tonight. I honestly thought it had been banned after the phone-in debacles. Shame on them for cheap, shitty programming.

RACIST!

Cos we get better telly from Wales anyway (end of our street effectively) and go for Pobol Y Cwm.

Never watch channel 5, watch ITV less than once a month i suspect

 

[Relahni]

Probably ITV/C4.

Rollem watches Home and Away - and I quite like one of the girls on it, so have a lazy eye over that on C5 occasionally. Rarely watch C4 - maybe catch the news occasionally. ITV - I mean ffs? Maybe watch a football match from time to time. Apart from that............it's just absolute shite.

 

[mentalchik]

Watch channel 5 now and again apart from that hardly watch any terrestrial tv at all.................

 

[foo]

5 probably.

 

[Dr. Furface]

ITV and 5. Only ever watch them for football (probably watch more on 5). Also F1 on ITV - but that's finished now and it'll be back on bbc from next year anyway.

 

[subversplat]

I chose ITV but only because my freeview box can't receive it

 

[Iam]

ITV and Channel5 are pretty much even on never.

Oh, apart from the occasional Champions League match on ITV.

 

[marty21]

rarely watch itv, do watch five a lot for the cop shows

 

[QueenOfGoths]

Can't remember the last time I watched ITV - possibly football related stuff.

With Law and Order, CSI and Paul Merton in India I watch Five quite a bit

 

[Idaho]

I occassionally watch Milkshake - the C5 kids programmes in the morning.

Never watch ITV - there is absolutely nothing on it of any interest.

 

[TrippyLondoner]

Channel 4/channel 5 are the ones i watch the least. I don't really count channel 5 as a proper channel though.

 

[electrogirl]

I hardly ever watch BBC 1. Watch alot of BBC2 and Channel4 mainly.

And ITV on Saturdays for X Factor and TV Burp.

 

[kyser_soze]

Yeah, internal aerial here and get fine C5 reception.

On digi I tend to watch ITVs 2, 3 and 4 since they all seem to show better progs and movies than ITV1...

 

[Grandma Death]

ITV. I would say I watch less than an hour a month....and thats only when I channel hop.
