Re: Red button

Tivo brings a whole new meaning to the term "Red button". Waste is the first word that comes to my mind. Never thought I would say this but I am missing Brighthouse ( that`s bad - no really it is)

Sorry because it was obvious to me I did not think about it . Yes you are right.

My family complain like mad when the place they stay offers it . When there I just watch what ever is on. (but it seem o.k to me) As I stay at a Disney hotel for the family get together I see very little TV. Except for the early morning news which is mainly Fox !!!
Love to see what they make of Virgin ( or Sky for that matter).

Have to keep my fans happy ( any offers for a script writer- needs to be good at one liners!)
When the family started talking TV (mostly started when seeing a billboard ) The moan was about various cable companies. Why do they generate so many moans . Back in my youth its was BBC or nothing !!!!

PS thank you to my niece for this. Anyone know the source?

The courts did not specify what sport should be on the sky sports interactive on VM,when VM sold its channels to sky the red button on sky sports was part of that deal.

And as such as far as we were aware it was the full sky sport red button service ,cricket is on sky sports 1 red red button tomorrow we shall see.
