No, but then neither do Babestation. There is however an independent site here where those CS fans can do if they want to...
Thanks Skate, thought I saw your shadow behind me when I posted that....
Main issue being that Celcast have got all that garbage, but they're still the most successful of the channels, in the same way ITV & other mainstream independent broadcasters are successful despite viewers having to tolerate 20 minutes of adverts every hour.
As I've posted elsewhere though, it's getting like a Party Political Propaganda campaign, people accept it up to a point,
but beyond that it irritatates & puts people off.
babestation is a forum member & I know he will be reading these posts, so hopefully the feedback will reach the programme planners & a redesign of the show format will be the result.

There are big differences between mainstream advertising seen on independent TV and the merciless hard sell campaign BS are using to interupt the flow of the programme.
ITV get their revenue directly from advertisers; BS don't (well perhaps some dosh flowed in from those dodgy electronic cigarettes advertised pre-9pm). They get revenue from the viewers-the very same people who are callers, texters and/or subscribers.
Independent TV also have highly professional advertising companies that work for them. They understand what viewers want or more importantly how to make viewers believe certain products are what they want.
I don't think BS do...for example, product placement is so simple to get right and so easy to get wrong. A girl, a bed and a phone. What more needs to sell the show. A moron can press the big digits on the phone and listen to a message saying press 1 now!! Where is the need for all this constant advertising.
I fully understand and appreciate the need for them to make money and really hope that BS remains the successful brand leader it was but this current trend is short sighted, alienates a percentage of the audience and to be honest smacks of desperation.
