Another thing, i may be wrong, but dont we get product placement tv nowadays on the bbc, also when they do stuff like comic relief etc, time and time again some large company gets their big cheque moment in front of the camera which is another form of advertisement. I want to see the normal people who have given what they probably can't afford, thats who i want to see with a big cheque, not some suited arsehole from Sainsbury looking all smug as though they personally donated the money. |
Many pensioners are house bound without the means to go out. All their friends have died and they are alone. This is a very common scenario as people grow old, so TV becomes their only form of company. Thats why they deserve it for free.
With regard to the fund raiser events, I hate them, never watch them now.
