  totally agree..it belongs on itv 2 i suppose along with keith lemon etc but when it cropped up on a film about the holocaust last night on itv 3 it was plumbing the depths.

  My solution is not to watch films on TV, there is no respect shown by the broadcasters to the viewer.
  
  The reason they do it is likely down to advertising, I think they have a commercial break either side of the "celebrity news programme". It's just to cram in more adverts.

  I rather watch the BBC Three 60 seconds .... but I totally understand the viewpoint here ... if its a 60 sec roundup made for ITV2 then keep it on ITV2 no need spreading it on ITV3/4 (by the way I barely watch ITV2 i'm more of an ITV3 person ) (and I am 29! LOL)

  Who are these slavering morons who feel they must be kept up to date with Showbiz "news"? Is it imperative that they get a bulletin telling them what some ex TOWIE bint is up to that day? Will their lives be enriched by such immediate and obviously important news?

  ^ And, in addition to all that, do they really need to show a few (no more than 5) Tweets along the bottom?

  Eugh. Even BBC 3, which has it's own fair share of celebrity/reality programming tat, have a 60 second news round up of... actual news.

  Does anyone hate this vacuous and often inappropriate crap in the middle of the film/show you're trying to watch? I'd understand if it was shown on ITV2 or in the middle of one ITV1's celebrity crap, but why put it on Itv3 & 4? I was watching "The Pianist" last night and lo and behold, some daft bint pops up blathering on about some Z-list reality no-mark:mad: I was atching "Casino" on ITV4 and again some bird comes on, wittering about something called "Our Re-Re"!:yawn:

  
  I haven't seen it yet on other ITV channels but it did exist previously on ITV 2 and was always rubbish and inappropriately placed then.

  Keep it to ITV2, it's perfect for that channel. It shouldn't be spread to the other ITV channels.:rolleyes:
  
  I've never seen a thread where so many people agree...don't cheapen the feel of ITV3 showing this nonsense. Doesn't really belong on ITV4 either.:o
