Young people are now watching seven times less television than people aged 65 and over. Surprised? No, we weren’t exactly either. But what does this mean for the future of telly in this country?
All it took was a short advert, and one quick glimpse of the iconic ‘eye’ logo - and we all knew what was coming. Big Brother is back. Whether you like it or not. So, it got us thinking about some of the most iconic TV bust-ups to ever grace British TV screens. Here’s our top picks:
We’re probably all a bit bored of seeing ‘breaking news’ appear on our screens. So where do we go for a bit of respite?

With that said, we’ve spent the last few days escaping the heat by diving into our archive to narrow down our picks of the best Freeview shows of the year so far.
As lockdown took a vice grip on all of our lives during 2020, so did our obsession with subscription TV services. Netflix was on-hand to take full advantage of our thirst for binge-worthy-series.

With the current buzz that Death on the Nile is enjoying across the pond, we got thinking about the seemingly guaranteed success of book-to-screen adaptations. It’s true, some things in life are just a winning combination. And the likes of Pride and Prejudice, Brideshead Revisited, and The Handmaid’s Tale have proven that TV adaptations are a firm favourite.
