BBC 1 Reviews

Channel 5 offer Martial Law and Charmed. Channel 4 is the channel that brought us Frasier and Angel (albeit cut and edited beyond recognition). ITV – great. It has dramas like Inspector Morse and I loved Pop Idol. BBC2 – brilliant. I was simply fascinated by The Experiment. But BBC1? Simply the best? Until about 8 months ago I ...  Read the complete review

I'm sure all of us at some point have snuggled down to watch our best soap or program. But how many of us sit and really think about the content of what we are watching? While flicking through the channels recently I was sickened to see what the BBC felt was "classy" entertainment. I tuned in as usual to watch Casualty to ...  Read the complete review

The queen mum has died of good wealth this weekend. She was 101.Hoards of pensioners who had never met her paid tribute to the longevity and grace of this wonderful woman. Iris Decrepit of Macclesfield said?Yes, she was a wonderful women, even though I had never met her!.She always had a smile for the common man and woman. She was one of ...  Read the complete review

BBC is not the only channel which has contributed to the death of comedy but "Comedy is dead." We have killed it. In a dark ally one night, comedy met fatally with Johnny Vaughn and Michael Barrymore, and its decomposing body is all that is left to bear witness to this terrible encounter. The worms and maggots ...  Read the complete review

The BBC have always been known for providing a great television and radio broadcast across the globe, but in the last decade, its ability to provide what the public wants is in decline. The BBC always had the top sporting action on TV and Radio broadcasts all over the UK, from Premership Football, Rugby, Motor Racing as well as Horse ...  Read the complete review

As you can see, I'm a great supporter of the BBC, but I do not want this to blur my view of it. I often criticise others of being too much one sided in arguments, and therefore I mustn't be hypocritical. Thus, I shall first look at the cons of the BBC, then the pros, and finish with a few suggestions that I think would make it a 5 star ...  Read the complete review

I used to really enjoy BBC1, but now I am really beginning to wonder. How much of our TV Licence money is currently being wasted on these little self-promotion links we are getting in between programmes? I think it is a dreadful waste of money, and it only serves to highlight that they are spending less money on actual programmes, ...  Read the complete review

its good because it is in English and there are some quite good programmes. - Advantages: Eastenders, UK channel (live in Belgium so no ITV C4 OR C5) - Disadvantages: Bit dull

I started to watch this programme last week, it has given me so many laughs I want to share it with you. I didn't quite fancy it at first because I have found Ruby Wax quite irritating in the past, but watching this show has 'warmed' me to her. As some of my dooyoo friends know, through illness, I have to stay indoors ...  Read the complete review

I used to be an avid fan of BBC one. They used to show great programmes everyday and all of them were what I wanted to see. To put it simply me and BBC one were made for each other. Then shock shock, horror horror, it all changed. BBC one was funny, interesting, factual and perhaps sometimes adventurous. But now I find it’s none of ...  Read the complete review

Eastenders in the past has had some interesting dramas in the past 'Who's Michelle Fowlers baby?' 'Who shot Phil' 'Marks AID's illness'etc But i have one word for the show, WOW!!!, It has been so gripping, it makes you really think about wot happens behind closed doors. I havent been able 2 miss an ...  Read the complete review

So you happen to be one of the worlds greatest Television corporations appealing to millions of viewers each day. Sounds tough but some how they manage to pull it off. Even with the advent of Digital technology stations like BBC choice even hit the spot. Not only the TV but they command the airwaves. From Radio 1 to 5 and back ...  Read the complete review

it need 1 or 2 more soaps and alot more sport programs to interest everybody - Advantages: eastenders - Disadvantages: no ER

Why is it you watch TV for weeks and weeks without seeing a single decent programme??? (...well except Buffy, but that only started last week, and the BBC still insist it's a kids programme so put it on at 5:45 rather than showing the uncut adult version at a more resonable time...but I digress). As I was saying, you wait ...  Read the complete review

Breakfast TV has its drawbacks and is a hit or miss affair. The morning audiences in general are not in our best state of mind having just woken up. However, in my opinion BBC Business Breakfast has the right blend of News and current affairs. It gives you the right amount of information to get you up to speed without overfilling your ...  Read the complete review

The BBC is the British Channel for those with terrestrial television only, but despite a swarm of satelite, digital and cable channels hitting our tubes recently I can honestly say the BBC still holds it's own in all departments, with the other channels offering mainly reconstituted rubbish. The BBC has had it's troubles but ...  Read the complete review

The BBC is the best damn television broadcaster in england and maybe in the world. But so it should be relly we do pay enough for it to be the best, and I don't really understand why the BBC can't pay for itself by adverts. There are enough adverts. Then the BBC would be more like ITV. They seem to manage without taxpayers money. ...  Read the complete review

Normally I wouldn't complain about Auntie Beeb as I very rarely watch ITV, never channel 5 and only really watch channel 4 for its American sitcoms. However after flicking through the TV listings magazines I'm being to wonder whether there is any life left at the BBC. Now I know summer scheduling is always very poor, it seems ...  Read the complete review

Is it me or did BBC1 used to be good?! They used to produce quality programmes; great comedys like men behaving badly and only fools and horses but they have now been replaced with low budget low quality programmes like my hero. When i express my views on BBC1, as you may have noticed, I am really talking about the comedy department. I ...  Read the complete review
