Control FreaksPeej writes, "My mate Tony's dad used to weigh the breakfast cereal in the morning to make sure everybody got an equal amount and the pack provided the exact amount of servings advertised on the packet. I learned from this that the recommended serving size on a cereal packet isn't enough to feed a sparrow."
Sound familiar? Tell us more.

I also switch over if adverts come onIf the channel executives aren't interested in me watching the programme on their channel, and would rather interrupt it with moronic adverts, then I will simply stop watching their channel and download the programme later instead.
Adverts between programmes = OK.
Adverts interrupting the middle of a programme = shit.

Especially fillums.Count yourself lucky you don't live in America! Every hour of TV is about 40 minutes TV programme with 20 minutes of adverts.

It's getting like that on satellite TV here.Non-satellite channels hve a reasonably-long ad break but Sky ones're quite ludicrously long.
As has been pointed out, you can now record them and and skip over the ads. Nobody needs to bother with them so it's self-defeating.
