BBC can be annoying...

I thought of beginning Wolf Hall, since the last episode is tomorrow (I hate having to wait for episodes - I usually don't watch ongoing series)... but the first episode expired. What's the point of having the five other episodes if one can't watch the introduction?! Corporations are weird things...

I like watching their documentaries online. Agree or not I find their interpretations of Americana fascinating.

When my father was alive, we used to have BBC Entertainment at my parents place. I used to love watching several episodes of QI in a row, as they were broadcasted on sundays. Not sure that they are online though, or even watchable outside the UK.

I'm not too fond of their DVDs and Blu-rays, which tend to be hideously overpriced, lacking in extras, and have two full minutes of unskippable ads at the beginning. And they wonder why piracy is so prevalent.

Disappointed to hear there are ads on material produced by the BBC. It's supposed to be a taxpayer-owned, non-commercial organization.
