That really wouldn't surprise me. And I must admit, I directed a few pointed Tweets myself at UKTV, it wasn't going to change anything of course but I was curious at what kind of response I got. I was left with an impression of "finger-in-ears" on some awkward points.

Both sides really are as bad as each other, in their own way.
