Well, whatever yer choice of PVR, it's also a good way to avoid ad-breaks. Fast-forward the blighters away!

Watching ITV and Channel 5 catch-up on Virgin Media has no adverts, so you don't even have to fast forward through them.

Didn't know that, not having Virgin Media. Surprising. Is Channel 4 the same?

I don't think that it is anything to do with Virgin Media, but it is the catch up channels themselves, as I have watched one or two ITV programmes on catch up and they missed the adverts out, but I was watching on Sky.

It's a sensible idea either way.

Yet watching programmes on itvPlayer you can't even skip through ads! There is an option to pay to watch ad-free, but I don't think I'll be doing that!

There are fewer ads, occasionally none!

This was (might still be) on UK Gold catch-up and I have just watched it. Really good although irritating that George is now the sister of the other three. If you've got Sky, you should be able to access it.
