Highlight of the day - 2 hours coverage of a borough council meeting (at peak viewing hours) - I would rather stick pins in my eyes! Muses the be riveting viewing.
Your last comment rings true, always people willing to spund off just to be on tv even if only a few hundred people will watch it.

I do know where you are coming from, but some of these meetings are of huge interest to people. Just try telling residents that a local school is going to close or a bus service withdrawn. People do feel very strongly about these things.
Many people have never been to a council meeting or are even aware of the subjects discussed. When it appears in the local paper, though, the rants start!
