The Anonymous Widower

An E-Mail to the Head of ITV

The head of ITV was on BBC Radio 5 this afternoon and Richard Bacon was soliciting questions.

I sent one in.

I never watch ITV mainly because I’m a coeliac and allergic to gluten, which means no bread, beer, pasta or fast food for me. So most of the food and drink product adverts are for products that make me ill.

 

I’ve also had a stroke, so I can’t drive and have no interest in betting, except on my own terms, when I have information or have made a reasoned judgement.  So that get’s the other adverts onto my not-to-watch list.

 

So how does a channel like ITV get me to watch football on the channel, rather than listen to it on another medium which gives a quality sound or text commentary, without bombarding me with adverts for things I don’t want or have no interest in?

 

I might be interested in subscribing to an advert-free ITV!

It was not asked.
