I forgot to mention this before... every week of the new series so far, the end of My Family on BBC1 has overlapped with the opening scene of Friends on C4... every week. I'm not happy Evil or Very Mad


I agree with you there. Something for Terry Wogan to sort out?


It depends if it is My Family running late, or Friends starting early.


C4 have been starting Friends early, although it wouldn't surprise me if BBC ONE was running slightly late. It won't have been to deliberately spoil the start of Friends though.

Of course My Family has action through the end credits, and Friends has a scene before the opening titles, which makes the overlap more noticeable.

Best of Friends
One US cable channel has come up with a novel way of counter-scheduling against the last ever episode of Friends on May 6 - just don't bother. Instead of repeats of Bewitched and Green Acres, TV Land will broadcast a live feed from its own offices for the 60-minute duration of the Friends finale, showing its own staff watching the show and reminding viewers to turn over to NBC. Maybe Channel Five should follow suit when the Friends finale reaches Channel 4 later this year.
