Sigh..I meant the hypocrisy of changing wedding, to love. Most cases it doesn't start out that way, and often it doesn't end that way

As Tina says..with weddings "what's love got to do with it"

As with wedding/love, all fuelled by lust, brain chemicals or feelings of obligation, which are all subject to change So I can't be held liable

Not one of SKY's best acquisitions. It was fairly niche on the BBC in the first place. This is the kind of result that may see SKY trying to buy the rights to even more shows from the start, rather than trying to jump on board 5 or 6 seasons in.

Rupert Murdoch's U.K. satellite pay TV operator BSkyB has inked a deal with British indie Entertainment Film Distributors for subscription pay TV and pay-per-view windows.


The deal means titles such as The Master, Silver Linings Playbook, Beautiful Creatures and The Host, will air across BSkyB's Sky Movies.
