American Football on BBC2 - go Saints! - they used my Fat Jakk version of Who Let The Dogs Out? as their theme back in the 90s...
Then Little Dorrit - bliss (I reread it a couple of years ago; I reread a Dickins novel every year if possible - last one was The Old Curiosity Shop)...
Then Stephen Fry in America...
great night of TV for me (I'd like to see both the conspiracy show and the Cartland film - I love Ann Reid - but I'm recording Frost)...
I enjoyed the American Football- this was its first airing on prime time terrestrial TV for a number of years.
Good on the BBC for covering it well BUT why oh why did coverage switch to BBC Three just after half time?
Surely a crass way to slash your audience.
It reminds me of a point David Attenborough made during his recent speech on the future of broadcasting. More than 40 years after the launch of BBC2, moving an established programme from BBC2 to BBC1 will mean an automatic doubling of the programme's audience.
Seems half the population can't remember a time WITHOUT BBC2, I find this fact incredible!
