Yes, I read this and, while I agree that having coverage of the D of E's death on both BBC1 and BBC2 simultaneously was pushing it a bit, we are all very lucky to have more that two (or three if you consider ITV too) TV channels to watch, even on Freeview. Many of us have the facility of catching up on programmes we have missed.With apologies to the keen followers, but not being able to watch Eastenders or the final of Masterchef is really not the end of the world. Annoying, perhaps, but not much more than that. I also think that the number of complaints is big, it is not that enormous compared to viewing ratings amounting to millions on certain programmes.It is also true to say, particularly among cynics which are a lot more than 110,000 in the UK, that such wide coverage in the media of one subject also means that other very important issues are not being broadcast or published.
