In 1983 we only had four TV channels and just two of them showed adverts.A typical hour long show on ITV or Channel 4 would have about 10 minutes of ads in three breaks.Now we have multichannel TV and I record things because the frequency and length of the ads drives me nuts.ITV have just applied to be allowed 8 minute ad breaks.That means an hour long show would only be 36 minutes long in reality.When I visited England, ads were either non-existent or limited. Of course, that was many years ago - 1983. Has that changed?
