I'm not doubting you, I was just a little surprised.

I thought it was just my folks that were weird like that.

Come to think about it though, I'm sort of glad I was ITV deprived as a kid.

I did get to watch wrestling on saturday lunchtimes/afternoons though. Was that ITV or BBC, I can't remember? Proper wrestling y'understand, Easy Easy, Giant Haystacks, etc etc
