Hedgecutter Posted June 13, 2016 Share Posted June 13, 2016 Over a lifetime, the average British adult will spend the equivalent of two full months watching the credits of TV programmes, with 95% of viewers agreeing that 90% of this is unwelcome and wasted time. In over 90% of cases, the credits being watched will have already been seen ten times and teach the viewer nothing new. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
