Popular TV programmes that we have never seen!

DeadEnders, Coronation Street, Emmerdale, Holby City, Casualty, Neighbours, Doctors, X Factor, Britain's Got Talent (the irony is laughable!), Dancing on Ice, most of Strictly, Top Gear, One Show, Big Brother, TOWIE, Geordie Shore, anything with a Kardashian in it, Masterchef in all its guises, Benefit Street, Judge Judy/Rinder, Anything with Jeremy smirking Kyle fronting it, etc......

My list of don't watch is endless. We seldom watch TV. Most of it is mindless dross produced on the cheap, or so depressing that it would benefit from a health warning.

Wow quite a list. Would agree with most of those but I like Strictly and we both used to enjoy Top Gear. 

I would get timed out on my full list! Last time I watched Strictly was when Louis Smith won. Didn't see a single episode of this last Bake Off. We use catch up for Uni Challenge and Only Connect, but only because they are easy and short enough to watch while having a meal. 

I like good documentaries and well made dramas. Cracker is, was, excellent. Some of classic BBC dramas were excellent. Channel Four has made some decent stuff as well at times. 

It would be easier for me to say what I watch, David Attenborough, Wild China et al, Time Team, Walking programmes with Julia Bradbury and Tony Robinson, 1950/60's comedy

Our current list is typical of the amount of tv that we watch. There are currently just 3 programmes that are scheduled for taping, namely Landscape Artist of the Year on Sky Arts on Tuesday evening, Countryfile but only for the long range weather forecast and Horse Racing on Channel 4 (my vice). Programmes that we may have been interested in tend to pass us by as we've not checked to see if anything interesting is on but somehow the planet keeps turning.

Might catch up with a news programme and evry so often a wildlife programme but that's about it. Much prefer to listen to music.

Someone commented that they were having an evening of wine and watching Midsummer Murders and could life get any better. I don't think they were being sarcastic.

We have never seen an episode of MM, Morse or  Cracker.  In fact find very little of interest on tv these days, I blame t'internet??

Which popular tv programmes have passed you by.

That was me last night in the "what are you up to today" thread and I wasn't being sarcastic lol. We love watching Midsomer when we are away in the van during the winter months. To add to this thread I have never seen an episode of Downton Abbey or Poldark which seems to be popular at the moment. Maybe I will get round to it at some point

WOW,  didn't  know  there  were  that  many  T.V.  Programmes  on  the  tellybox --  must  go  and  do  some  research  !

Write your comments here...I'm reliably informed that you can buy a weekly magazine that lists these programmes. Should help you with the research.

...but 30 seconds of either 'host/compere' is enough to put me off.....

Never watched a single episode of X Factor or The Voice or BGT or Big Brother. Only once seen Get Me Out Of Here when holidaying with friends who wanted to watch last year's final! Almost certainly loads of others I could mention, certainly all the daytime dross!

Always try to watch the quiz programmes and animal/wildlife stuff and whatever sport I can get away with (not much these days!)
