UK gold may have better audience figures than BBC or ITV

Thread Starter: rg286    Started: Tue 16 May 2006    Replies: 1

The amount of people I talk to now who have switched over to watch UK gold rather than BBC or ITV does not surprise me, both channels have become very money grabbing. BBC have now followed ITV and Channel Four by putting on reality tv shows where the audience phone to vote for who or what they like in accordance with the show. These phone calls are based on a fixed rate where the channel takes a large percentage of the phone profits,the shows are also cheap to run. The downside of this is that most of the audience are bored of these reality tv shows and know that they are being made mugs of and are now switching channels in thier droves to channels like UKgold to watch real tv shows that are worth watching,thanks UK gold
