I'm sure that they will have worked this out so as not to lose much revenue.

If the idea to relax advertising restrictions goes through we may well see periods where no commercials are shown, followed by a blitz during a popular programme.

Oddly enough, it's been reported that when this was shown on ITV+1, the "we can't show this for legal reasons" slate was shown

But not that useless and over exaggerated that you not only chose to read it, but chose to comment too.

You can always put me on ignore if my threads do not suit you.

Sanctimony appears to have replaced good humour.
