ITV, C4, Five - anything good on them?

[Zigster]

I saw something earlier about all the streaming services (including BBC iPlayer) and it was noticeable that the comment didn’t mention ITV Hub, All 4 and My5.

It made me realise that I quite literally never watch any of those channels. I haven’t even signed into the services on the TV I bought over a year ago.

Is there anything decent on those channels that I’m missing out on? Or do a lot of you have the same experience as me?

As usual it’s a matter of taste/preference. I could happily live without ITV and C5. But my wife watches lots of crap on ITV. Channel 4 have a lot of programs I watch: Taskmaster, GBBO, Grand Designs, Pottery Throwdown

Emmerdale on ITV

Plenty crime dramas on ITV, inbetweeners on 4 , in fact a few boxed sets on 4.

Apart from the too short lived Spiral on BBC4, the Walter Presents package on All4 cannot be found elsewhere giving top draw continental crime.

[Digger]

Semi-regular Bond films on ITV4.

All Creatures Great And Small was on My5/CH5

If you can stay awake enough for the subtitles from Swedish , Danish , Flemish , Dutch .......etc.
I can manage the Italian .

The Tour and Giro coverage on ITV is excellent.

Yes lots of good programming on those channels, what do you enjoy watching? Might help with recommendations.

Which was good until it went woke at Christmas

24 hours in Police custody

i don't think Amazon and Netflix will be able to make as British centric responsive documentaries/tv shows

[miniman]

All 4 is probably the best on demand service of all.

Good question. Box sets of stuff usually, with the odd movie when we have time.

Just started watching The Serpent. Loved The Queen’s Gambit. Thought Hanna was great.

I do like crime dramas (The Bridge, The Tunnel, The Killing, Line of Duty). Spiral sounds good.
