  • trevstanley Trevor Sharkey (@trevstanley) reported from Stanley, England

    @bt_uk Do you think you could address the problem of your BTtv EPG in relation to entries by @DiscoveryUK. Entries misleading in time, length of prog, capital letters, no synopsis and unable to "record the series". Do you care?

    Respectfully asking @btsport @btsportfootball could you put out a commentary free soundtrack of football games. The inane, stupid, inaccurate comments Jennas and McManaman are beyond irritating. Still like the stadium noise for the atmosphere.
