We lost our only TV over a year ago and have yet to replace it.

Apart from the continuous threatening "we are coming to getcha!" letters from TVlicencing life without TV is actually much better.

We have all of the programs worth watching (all repeats) on DVD and play them on the PC.

We stopped watching the news years ago and use net sites to get a more accurate view of the world (compare thereg with the rather blatantly spin driven bbc news).

As others have pointed out - TV is no longer of any real value. So someone please wake me up when they actually start broadcasting something other than couch potato fodder :-)
