I'm convinced it's one of the ...Very true.<br /><br />I'm convinced it's one of the reasons that I now watch ITV4 which is full of things like Rumpole and Upstairs Downstairs. If you watch them you realise how relaxing they are to watch because they cut so rarely.<br /><br />They actually trust themselves enough to know that they can put something on screen that will keep an audience rather than thinking they have to cut quickly to stop you getting bored.<br /><br />Watch Civilisation with Kenneth Clarke. There's a man, on a staircase, talking about art for 1 or 2 minutes at a time, and it's still brilliant TV. Today, you'd have to have some split screen re-enactment scene or some ambient music.<br /><br />The blame lies squarely with people who believe that we're all (whether 14,30 or 60) part of the MTV generation. That for some reason, despite the fact that humans don't evolve at this speed, we've got less of an attention span than our grandparents.Tim Almondhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13369256383976094670noreply@blogger.com
