In the main it's been a warm week excepting Wednesday which naturally I was out in, sticking post-its to the letterbox for the mail and assorted couriers.

Television it must be said isn't a major thing with me.

I mean there people who watch from the crack of dawn to bedtime, plowing through box sets and three or four part continuious re-runs or sorts who just click through channels trying to find something.

My tv habits were formed in childhood and they tended to be just a few shows between other things like playing or as I got old between sessions playing records although radio as in daytime or weekend end show or a weekday concerts.

Televisions themselves have changed since then.

The big box with the rear of it's tube neck sticking out behind its back has been replaced by lcd displays that are much thinnner and totally flat with improvements  in geometry as those of you had those early 32" widescreen cathode ray tubes in the 90's might well remember.

Back then the dvd player and early digital tv gave us better actual widescream programming where today we have blue ray and for some very high defination streaming.

Well recently our Panasonic 32" set died - power supply issue affecting the lcd drivers - so we got a Sharp Aqua which is fairly plain set with a few streaming apps because one issue with streaming and their apps is the apps themselves go out of date after several years so your "smart" tv loses that where a set with good connectivity enables you to fit new devices as needed extending the sets life.

When and if satellite and terrestorial tv via an antenna ends no one has determined as yet although it's no secret broadcasters and transmitter owners want to get shut of this  moving everyone on streaming even if internet may be poor or non existant in parts of the UK.

Thus I feel connectivity matters more today.
