Channel 4: Nothing to see here

Big Brother
All Channel 4 strands
24 hours a day

So we say goodbye to Channel 4 for the summer, as its channels are given over to pictures of narcissistic eejits in swimwear with a soundtrack of birdsong. C4 and E4 have 24-hour coverage (with E4's revolutionary endoscopy coverage for the most in-depth BB coverage ever). To celebrate BB's 10th anniversary, More 4 will be showing Simon Schama's epic series, The History Of Big Brother; and Film 4 has the world premiere of the new Jade Goody biopic, Kebabs And Chemo.

For all your Big Brother coverage, GO SOMEWHERE ELSE. Barking At The Television will remain a Reality-Free Zone for the duration. So, in addition to zero BB coverage, there will be no calls for a Scottish lady to be given a prize here; nor will there be a report on which wannabe celebrity is pointed at by a former businessman who looks like Nookie Bear.

Instead I'll be bringing you news and reviews of all the most interesting TV of the summer.
