catgate Posted April 15, 2007 Report Share Posted April 15, 2007 I have just watched both the above and must admit to great disappointment.For some silly reason, in both programmes, ITV choses to show cars in one programme, and motor bikes in the other, going round on a track. This may be OK for just an extremely short period but it totally destroys the flowing transition from the primping, preening, empty twittering of presenters and commentators to the puerile, empty, banal adverts.By my estimation the circulation of these vehicles on screen must have occupied a total of well over half an hour over the period when these programmes were transmitted.

The F1 transmission from Bahrein was over 2 hours and, as a fan, I thought it a bit boring, though the commentators tried to jazz it up. Don't care for motorbike racing myself.Plenty of football on though. Man U v Chelsea should make a good cup-final.Thos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
