The BBC have been once again top drawer with their Olympics coverage but it does get annoying the amount of times we have to switch channels in one evening just to satisfy the Eastenders viewership. I mean would it really be harmful to shift Eastenders to BBC 2 for just a few nights...better still just not show it while the Olympics are on? Then again if that happened the raft of letters of complaint that would come flooding in would be unbearable for the organisation. They remember full well the complaints they received when they interrupted a repeat of Mrs Brown's Boys for the small insignificant matter of the death of Nelson Mandela.
It pisses me off when the soap lovers get all emotional and angry when one of their programmes are interrupted, especially on the BBC. They don't realise that they have to cater to a load more people than those that like to watch the same boring sh*t for a couple of hours every night. I remember seeing loads of complaints when the soaps weren't being shown on certain days when the Euro's was on.
