Going back to Janet's sporting analogies, they don't, for example, arrange for "Pot Black" to appeal to people who aren't interested in snooker, do they? Sailing is covered in terms of "look at all the pretty sails". I look forward to this policy of wider appeal being applied to football with the planting of herbaceous borders behind each goal, and during televised matches Monty to come on at half-time and demonstrate grass maintenance. -- Sue |

"Kay" wrote in message ... Sacha writes How strange. That's *precisely* the one I got! I have also written to the BBC. Not strange at all. They'll have carefully drafted a standard letter and be sending out to everyone ;-) The most you can hope for is a tailored addition if you make a specific point that no one else has made. I wonder why Chelsea coverage "has to appeal to a wider audience, not just gardeners". Going back to Janet's sporting analogies, they don't, for example, arrange for "Pot Black" to appeal to people who aren't interested in snooker, do they? I am afraid they do. The real hard core snooker fanatic audience is small. Snooker became big when they could persuade millions to watch it now and again. To do that they need exactly the same stuff that drives you nuts about chelsea coverage. It is shallow and glitzy and pulls in punters. Chelsea coverage is grim and glitzy but once a year is easy entertainment. It works because it pulls in big audiences who do not like latin names or even know what latin is or care. If Chelsea went technical, it would be much more fun for me to watch and audiences would plummet. It is a sad fact of growing old that more and more TV looks shallow like this. Bums on seats etc. -- Kay |

Maybe if they stuck flowers in all those holes, I'd find snooker more interesting? Or made pretty little tussy mussys all round the feathers of darts! In between shots, the Diet Doctor could examine the fat dartplayers' poohs and give them dietary advice. Janet |
