[Dennis tanner]

There will be no Emmerdale or Coronation Street today because ITV are showing the European Football Championships

Why are these games on ITV1 ?

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 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

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.
