I'm watching an old episode of Morse on ITV3. Quite enjoying it, too.
The ads have just been on, though.
One for the obligatory "have you had an accident that wasn't your fault?" ambulance-chasing legal aid bottom-feeders.
Then the obligatory one for the debt "counsellors" (don't pay your creditors, pay us instead, we'll make it sound really nice until we send the bailiffs round! dot com).
Then the one for the shitty car insurance comparison company. Know how to use a computer? Well enough to type our address into the browser? Too fucking thick or lazy to do just the same with a few well-known car insurance companies' names? Jolly good. Come and pay us a finders' fee premium, cockwit! Dot com.
But then, the creme de la creme of end-it-all ads, Michael bloody Parkinson advertising a company that (for a fee, of course) will take your regular savings and then give some of them back to you when you die , just in case you're really worried about the cost of your own cremation. Your cremation! I'd be off down the canal myself, except I haven't got anything to tie the bricks to my ankles with.
