Just your average geordie bloke in London, who works way too hard but tries to find time for good mates, beery nights out, indie and electro clubs/bands, good food, and cuddles under the duvet on a sunday morning. Applications welcome :-)

A topic from Film, TV & Radio: Other Television

I don't really watch much TV, because I'm not at home very much.

But the BBCs new iPlayer thingy is fantastic. I watched one show a couple of weeks ago to try it out, and found it very watchable. Now I've become addicted to the damn thing.

Theres a full selection of virtually everything on the Beeb from the last 7 days. So when you get that annoying thing at work where everyone says "Hey did you see that fantastic programme last night?", you can catch up in your lunch hour and join in the conversation.

I think I now actually watch it more than the real TV. I'm loving the whole idea of TV on demand. I've never watched so much BBC programming in my life. If theres nothing on TV, I just flick through iPlayer. So much to see, so little time.

And now it looks like they're dropping Flash Video in favour of QuickTime, the quality should get a lot better. AND it now works on the iPhone over WiFi.

One of the best things the Beeb have ever done :-)
