Quick rant:

We have NTL cable TV and we were watching 'A Few Good Men' tonight on the Living channel. Good film, seen it before, but enjoying it none the less. Half an our from the end of the film, at midnight, the damn channel gets switched over to a pay per view porn channel complete with ten minutes worth of free previews! Didn't even wait until the film was over! What complete fg idiots! I have no problem with porn in itself and anyone who wants to watch it, that's fine with me. But to have no choice in the matter is unacceptable, and shows what utter cretins are running NTL.

Interesting scenario: the film is a 15 certificate and say some parent recorded it for their 15 year old kid, who then gets to see the unexpected "director's cut" at the end of the film. Not very clever I'd say...

Bah! Humbug! Time for bed
