I guess so they can reap most of the advertising fees, the companies want their product shown when millions of football fans are watching, there are less viewers on the other channels during these type of competitions, I guess.

I know Tom locked Belle in but he could not have known that the tea towel would catch on fire? So why did he?? :hmm:

I suppose thats understandable, although not everyone is interested in football. ITV have 4 channels why not move Emmerdale to one of them, BBC are putting Eastenders on BBC 2.

BBC do not get advertising revenue... easy for them to switch channels for a couple of weeks...

I am not a football fan, but I believe there is a rule, or even a law, that says the rights to matches must be shared out equally between The BBC and ITV. I think that the final is shown on both.

I like football but I have no interest in seeing two foreign teams play each other

go on moira and kim should kick out rose

Moira is right that Cain isn't behaving as per self. Not much happened after he was bashed over the head by Aaron except for him passing out once, but I'm wondering whether his change is due to a traumatic brain injury after that attack.
