So we have a DOG come up telling us that in somewhere over rainbow was about to start, BBC have stopped to an all time low. From now on I will wait until Dr Who is on Iplayer. I get to listen to the theme without the voice over as well.

Idiots.
I won't watch OTR now because of this..
Disgraceful BBC One!:mad:
The BBC is supposed to be above that sort of commercial dog shit.
To be fair, whenever bbc have tried anything like this, they've been pretty quick to respond with a 'won't happen again' apology. Let them know how you feel!
Appalling.
Its about time we got rid of this ****ing about with onscreen graphics.
Really really dumb, an incredibly tense moment in the episode, building up to the cliffhanger and then up pops a cartoon Graham Norton.
Pathetic BBC, hang your heads in shame.
ill hold you to that
I'm not even sure what happened next I was so distracted by it.
As I have said before, the BBC is a nice idea but the people running it are just not worthy. Jay Hunt is the BBC1 controller, is she a retard or out of her depth??
There are not many commercial channels in the UK that display an in-programme promo in the closing seconds of a programme, those that do are at the low-end.
well if BBC promise they wont then well we see.
However i cancelled my Sky Movies subscription becuase I was fed up with decent moving and emotional endings being ruined with a voice blaring out what was coming on next and in next few days, before the first note of the end credits started, something i didn't want on a paid channel, so you can hold me to my word!
It didn't annoy me much, I am quite good at blocking things like that out but if it wasn't shown on BBC HD that is going on my list for getting HD!
I have almost convinced the family we need it. NO silly overlays might swing it for me.
:mad:

edit: I've registered my disgust at the complaints page.
I already have!
And it's much much worse when it happens in Doctor Who
In an age where TV guides are so ubiquitous and no-set top box comes without them (And 99% of all TVs are now linked up to some form of them) they're completely unnecessary too, particularly when the programmes are trailed heavily before and after each programme and especially when I imagine there is very little cross over viewership between Dr Who and Graham Norton's latest piece of crap reality show.

Just search the web for BBC complaints. It'll take you about 30 seconds to fill out the form.

Don't forget to be polite so that your complaint isn't dismissed out of hand and request that they reply back to you.
If enough people complain about the viewers being treated as morons who don't know which channel they are watching and what may be on next then perhaps this nonsense will stop.
