Monday started off as any normal morning - GMTV i then went on the bus and listened to my Ipod for the journey and during school watched and analysed Yasmin and the mise en scene in some extracts. After school i watched some programmes I'd recorded - Never mind the Buzz cocks and Mock the week and some other programmes in between. It was then i realised that i had quite a viscous headache and sore throat so i retired to bed at about 10 - o clock.
The Tuesday was again the same pretty much as Monday - except this time i went to bed at 9 - 0 clock due to a roaring temperature.
From Wednesday to the Friday morning i was in bed, slipping in and out of sleep and only waking up to eat - the television i did watch was normal boring day-time TV slob: The Jeremy Kyle show, Judge Judy, repeats of Stargate or Bones and any other rubbish that Sky regurgitated on its many many channels - there was simply nothing on worth watching. It makes me realise how scammy sky is. - apart the single perk that when something good comes on and your going to miss it - you can record it. Why is there nothing to watch on so many channels? is it just me?

I totally agree with you. So many channels - so little worth watching. It's one of life's unexplained mysteries! Perhaps it is some law of physics: the greater the quantity, the lesser the quality. One thing I DO know - the budgets for most of the digital channels are MINISCULE compared to a BBC or ITV prime-time budget, or even daytime budget. If you're given peanuts to make a programme then you'll have to take shortcuts. Cheap camera equipment; forget about hiring a sound recordist; single location shooting; your best friend as cameraman (because he once filmed his cousin's wedding and it was ok). See what I mean?
Also - there are so many hours to fill and not enough original ideas to fill them. Advertising plays a huge role in budgets. Can you make the link between advertising and daytime budgets?

Maybe...
