A one hour looping advert for one hour a day is scrapping the barrel in terms of being an appropriate channel as far as I'm concerned. If that's what the channel will be. We don't know yet.
"I'm not wanting to join the army...hang on a 1 hour looping advert... I'll join the army".
I have respect for our military friends so please don't try to suggest otherwise by your wording. I don't have respect for pointless channels which no one will ever find or watch

At no point did I say you were criticizing the forces or their personnel. Quite how I have twisted your words evades me, perhaps you can explain how I have?
I just feel that those in the services will find the channel useful and will not think VM are "scraping the barrel."
You have every right to think VM are scraping the barrel, but I don't think they are and I am sure all the serving personnel, ex-personnel and their families wont think so either. I am happy to be corrected on this point.
You are right, we don't know what the channel will be yet, so I can not figure out why you would criticize it before it's launch.
I struggle to see how a channel aimed at helping boost morale or figures in the armed forces can be classed as pointless though.
"Hm, I am not sure if I want to join the Army. I know, before I make an appointment at my local recruitment centre and waste their time, I will just watch this handy one hour video to see if it helps make my mind up first. If it does not I can still go down the recruitment centre after anyway"
I have no major problems with you thinking the channel is scraping the barrel, I just think many people will not think it is scraping the barrel.
I am happy to agree to disagree if you are?
