I love rugby union, but putting an inevitable French home win over they always lose Italy on BBC1 is a joke.

The viewing figures are going to be astonishly low, if the BBC tell the truth. Some kind of record low.

Both teams have a 0-2 record at the moment as well. Exciting stuff.

The Marseilles crowd think they're world beaters for overcoming the joke of european rugby at home. Now a snoozefest as Gabby Logan bores on in her unknowledgeable review.

Do the BBC not employ any male presenters anymore!

Jesus, watching the Winter Olympics you'd have thought it's a crime to have a winky.

especially on the sporting side. Possibly positive discrimination to balance the 'injustice' of the last 80 years.

Not sure in these days of streaming, smart TVs and associated channels there is such a thing as prime time tv.

Exactly. Apart from live sport (not egg chasing obvs) everything we watch is off the Sky+ planner or downloaded. There is no prime time any more. And I'm old.

On the subject of smart tv's.
We've just lost the ITV & C4 apps on our smart tv, it no longer supports them on our model, probably time for an upgrade.
Still have iPlayer and the carthorse, that is C5 app.
