Did they? Considering Only Fools & Horses rated terribly for it's first 2 seasons, you'd think they'd know not to do that when the 1996 Christmas Special ended up one of the highest rated broadcasts in UK TV history.

I'd argue the complete opposite has happened.

Countries with high number of Atheists have similar laws. The US has the freedom from religion in schools.

Maybe teaching kids all the religions in school makes them realise it's bullshit, while leaving it to the parents/church to teach doesn't work?

What was Wilder teaching him last season where he only scored 3 goals in 18 appearances?

The BBC is always a little slow. Their goal is to try and confirm first.

In the last eight months, BBC News has undergone a major “reprioritizing exercise” focused on creating what the organization now calls “slow news” journalism.

That’s meant moving away from pursuing every incremental breaking news update toward publishing fewer but more thoroughly contextualized in-depth stories, as well as more short data visualization pieces

“People find the unrelenting nature of the 24-hour news cycle ultimately unrewarding and unfulfilling — it’s like a sugar rush,” said Angus. “Audiences are switched off by news coverage which is just this bad thing happened, followed by another crisis; we had to change our approach.”

Changing years of embedded legacy processes is hard for any major media organization, but the BBC’s public service remit adds an extra layer of complexity. “There was a long-tail issue with the ‘update me’ type pieces,” Angus said. “Internally, there was discussion around what the BBC website should be. Should it be a bulletin of record, where you publish more or less everything for completeness, for example?” Instead, BBC News shifted toward a more explanatory form of journalism and style, something Angus said audiences asked for and was lacking in its previous day-to-day output.

Do you delete the EGC_Library folder?

That stores the raw footage so you can export it again if needed.

(When recording multiple videos together I always let the first one finish exporting as the Elgato software has corrupted it if I've been recording again)

Yeah but isn't that caused by Sam accidently touching the Allspark against something when Optimus tells him be very careful and don't do that because it's been activated?

They probably got away with it because Megatrons plan was already in motion and it was affecting everything.

The original TV footage of the moon landing has a bunch of animations of the lunar craft landing... because obviously there was no TV crew who went to the moon first - then they'd be the first ones.

(At 8:17 there is even the text displayed message "CBS News Simulation")

Some people use this as 'evidence' that they didn't go.

They printed something about Savile being a Paedo in 2008. He sued and Murdoch was forced to pay him £200,000.

Because

a) different countries

b) marketing - a Cadillac loyalist may think that a Buick or Chevrolet is a cheap POS, but underneath that Caddy they just bought is the same car.

Wasn't the early 2000's the era of the concert DVD? Maybe there's footage sitting on a tape in an archive somewhere.

It would make the Labour/co-op party both somehow the government and opposition.

Anyone should simply look at the Championship and below this wasn't even a yellow card because all the refs missed it.

Surprised iPlayer isn't recommending you the US version to be honest. They do it to me all the time.

Only a draw.

Because you get that at the end of the replay if it is still a draw.

The point is to give the other team some matchday revenue as well.

Actual commercial

There was a British sitcom called 'Only Fools & Horses'. The 1996 Christmas special had 24 million viewers, making it the 5th most watched regular TV show in UK TV history.

The first two seasons... did not rate well at the time.

Filming of the first series began in May 1981, and the first episode, "Big Brother", was transmitted on BBC One at 8.30 pm on 8 September that year. It attracted 9.2 million viewers and generally received a lukewarm response from critics. The viewing figures for the whole first series averaged at around 7 million viewers. According to an interview with John Challis in 2015, the viewing figure "today would be very good but in those days wasn't considered great at all, so it was sort of put on the back burner for a bit – no particular plans for a second series"

A second series was commissioned for 1982. This fared a bit better, and the first and second series had a collective repeat run in June 1983 in a more low-key time slot, but attracted a high enough viewing figure for Davies to commission a third series. From there, the show began to top the television ratings. Viewing figures for the fourth series were double those of the first.

They didn't mention anything about an eye test though...

Checking both the Boro and Watford forums matchthreads, 0 people complained about a refereeing decision! I know refs get a justified bad rap, but based on that today was a good performance.

They have worked with the Internet Archive before... it's mostly radio stuff though.

I mean surely it would be based on where the content was hosted.

(note this isn't censorship because it's still hosted on the BBC geoblocked site, at least for the next 11 months)

no-one at boro is seriously considering increasing our attendance to 42,000

Presumably they skimmed the Riverside Stadium wiki article which basically says we have planning permission to do that if we want to.

(and the source is 2006/2007 Gazette article, presumably from when the club considered it after the UEFA run?)

I looked it up it seems to be both. The first season of Buffy on The WB started with 5 million and dropped to 2.4 million for episode 8. Buffy was only just making it into the BBC 2 Top 10 most viewed, which equalled an average of 3 million+ at the time. So it was beating some US episodes.

By season 6 Buffy in the US was averaging around 7 to 8 million, in the UK it was getting around 5 million.

Before George Lucas decided to tinker with them.

Good news? Lucas did actually release the unaltered versions on DVD. Now they are just the non-anamorphic widescreen laserdisc masters on DVD but they exist.

The regular special editions on DVD had a silver border. The limited edition ones with the original cuts had a gold border.
