If you want to see why Britain’s future will be so decrepit, look at the dramas on ITV. Unlike the BBC or Channel 4, ITV receives no state protection. It must compete in the market, and is targeting the most powerful audience in the country: the elderly.
ITV has old soap operas: Coronation Street (first broadcast in 1960) and Emmerdale (1972).
