Red-dot Posted July 29, 2017 Report Share Posted July 29, 2017 Too many from UK and Oz they are repeated over and over and they are still showing A reg Astras being chased by marked Rovers... £2,000,000 helicopter chasing kids on Monkey bikes.... in contrast last nights London fire fighters was great.

viking Posted July 29, 2017 Report Share Posted July 29, 2017 i like police program's but yes, they are repeated far to much, some times its says, new police interceptors,then turns out to be a repeat, and iv noticed they dont call the chopper out as much as they used to, it used to be for anything which did seem a waste of money, iv seen then chasing scummy kids on motor bikes driving through parks and what not, my thought was whats the point as if there caught they get a slap on the wrist or a £50 fine that they pay back at a £1 a week, and the cost of the chopper chasing them is ridiculous, and all they do now is take there helmets off as the police can not pursue them with no helmet on, but the thing thats bugging me at the moment is the dropping of the word "the" when referring to "the police" you are charged with "making off from police" it annoys me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toontastic Posted July 29, 2017 Report Share Posted July 29, 2017 I watch quite a few of these programmes, and the one reoccurring thing is how often the police are let down by the cps and the courts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ips Posted July 29, 2017 Report Share Posted July 29, 2017 I like the court enforcement officer ones. I find there calm demeanor faced with scroats that think they know the law better most amusing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silver pigeon69 Posted July 29, 2017 Report Share Posted July 29, 2017 Always wondered if the "accused" have the option of having their face blurred out or if they get paid for appearing on the program without their face blurred?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldypigeonpopper Posted July 29, 2017 Report Share Posted July 29, 2017 hello, i have noticed if you looked on the tv listings say in a news paper it displayed a R a few years back but now when check the listing on the TV it is not show, many bbc programmes are shown 1 night and repeated the next, i do not watch many reality programmes but the one showing the oxford murder of the book dealer was interesting.

Dave-G Posted July 29, 2017 Report Share Posted July 29, 2017 (edited) Can't be watching any of these 'reality' type programs that show for instance: A man in a blue car speeding at 100mph on a motorway and PC super plod is chasing him, then the adverts come on and the part two again details 'a man in a blue car is speeding at 100 mph on a motorway - and PC Super Plod is chasing him. I know we're going to get infinite repeats but to repeat the footage within 15 minutes is change channel or throw the remote at the TV time.

The 'recap' after the adverts is one of my pet hates and more programs are doing it, with adverts and the recap it cuts an hour program down to 30/35 minutes.

They don't get paid either way. If production can convince them to sign a release form, then they are unblurred, if not, then they're blurred.

Bigbob Posted July 31, 2017 Report Share Posted July 31, 2017 I used to like watching the police interceptors dont know if the police where just playing up for the camera but it always made one or more look like a right **** now i try to watch one programme a day and its usually on the history channel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vince Green Posted July 31, 2017 Report Share Posted July 31, 2017 (edited) reality TV is all about cheapest possible ways of filling a half hour slot. It used to be TV chefs, Delia Smith made her programmes in the conservatory of her house for peanuts. Big brother?

Exactly that, it allows them to recycle footage more than once. And a 5 min intro at the beginning, it pads it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greenhunter Posted July 31, 2017 Report Share Posted July 31, 2017 I thought the blurred faces thing meant convicted= un-blurred, got away with it or under-age = blurred. Happy to be proved wrong! Quite often any 'new' progs actually only means new to that channel! GH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
