    If it's the same thing Dion Dublin is on, the presenter talks to the buyer before and after the refurb.

    Well I think there are many folks on this board that could come up with better ideas for tv programmes than what is broadcast at the moment. For example, how about
    Hang-gliding grannies....
    Topless tiddlywinks......
    Hedgehogs in Brine.......
    Doctors Who Sing.......
    International Plate-Spinning.....

    That's just off the top of my head. I'm sure others can do better.

    I don't personally mind some of the kinds of shows the OP mentioned. I love watching things like Forged in Fire(blacksmithing) and Ink Master(tattooing), with people who have mastered their skill to an elite level. I find it really interesting, educational and enjoy seeing what a person can produce with skill and their own two hands.

    Even that Butcher show(if it's the same as the one I've seen) was pretty good. I never realized just how much skill and experience it took to fully butcher an animal correctly while wasting as little as possible.

    Some of them are tosh, though. And it's usually the BBC that has put them together. In the past few years ones about make-up artists, pretentious interior designers and one that should have been interesting but wasn't jewlers. 99% of all the finished "products" on this shows were mature at best...

    I don’t understand this, in the winter I get to see an extra 5hrs of tv a week since WFH (the saving on travel) but in the summer it’s same as normal cos I’ve got plenty to do whilst the weathers brighter.

    Anything that starts with "The Real Housewives Of... " sounds deeply suspect to me, although I'm hoping to see "The Real Housewives of Dodworth" in the not too distant future.

    just reminds me of the Springsteen song....

    So I bought a .44 magnum it was solid steel cast
    And in the blessed name of Elvis well I just let it blast
    'Til my TV lay in pieces there at my feet
    And they bsted me for disturbin' the almighty peace
    Judge said "What you got in your defense son ?"
    "Fifty-seven channels and nothin' on"
    I can see by your eyes friend you're just about gone
    Fifty-seven channels and nothin' on
    Fifty-seven channels and nothin'...

    Cooking in prison. If you don't do it sky will.:D:D the irony of that was that most of the suggestions would probably get made today.
