The first things to go will be subscriptions to Netflix, Amazon, Sky etc. When it comes to a choice between having the heating on or watching subscription channels then its game over. Expect many more offers over the next few months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you were properly poor, couldn’t afford to go anywhere or do anything, then a fiver a month to pay for a pretty massive selection of entertainment us pretty good value. Cheaper than one trip to the cinema, cheaper than a pint down the pub, cheaper than a book, half the price of the tv licence. That’s going to go before the Netflix subscription goes.

I can’t claim to remember a time before channel 4 (but I definitely do remember the excitement of the spice girls launching channel 5). But I can claim to have the same black and white, ‘portable’ tv in my mums bedroom, that wee watch Cagney and Lacey on together, that you had to get up a twiddle the dial on. Actually, come to think of it, we didn’t have 4 channels, we barely had 2, the rest was just static. ‘when I were a lad, we used to live in hole in road’ Edited October 17, 2022 by TigerTedd Boycie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
