The statement "underwhelmed" doesn't quite cut it
Sky get the likes of Atlantic and we get channels which someone found at the back of a old bin and lose ESPN
Incredulous!
Back to the days of second rate TV offering”
The thing that everyone seems to be missing is that the vast majority of channels that Sky have that we don't are satellite free to air channels that are absolutely mind numbingly horrible. I can't see many people watching these channels for a single programme, let alone for a whole evening!
There is very little of quality that we don't get. Sky Atlantic is the only one left on my list now.
As for losing ESPN, clearly you believe that we will not be getting the BT Sport channels. Let's wait and see, shall we?
