I'm abroad with no telly
It's brilliant actually. I'm sort of in touch enough to have a vague idea of what's going on, and can pretty well bluster my way through idle chatter, but out of the poo-vortex of pop-culture. I can ignore the odd Heat magazine in the newstands, and noone on the bus stop is talking about X Factor.

Then my friends at home act as a kind of filtration system so that anything truely worthwhile I still hear about and can then track down. Wonderful.
