I'm just going to take slight issue with this. In Ireland and the UK at least, our broadcasters offer both catch-up services (programmes are available from the last week or so that you can watch; not all, but some), on-demand services where you can download the entire series, and some have a "restart" feature, where if you missed the start of a show you can hit a button and it will go back to the beginning for you. I don't know if you have these over that side of the world, but here it's pretty sweet. Download the whole boxset, watch it in order one episode after another/one season after another. Oh, and it's free: well, included in your main TV subscription.

1. What was your very first car or motorbike?
2002 Nissan Sentra. Had some serious internal issues with it that were undisclosed so I only had it for a year. The thing was pretty small and mousey so I was able to zip around in it pretty well. Best part was one day I hit a pretty large pothole and all of a sudden my feet were glowing purple. Previous owner installed purple neon lights and they must have had circuit issues that were temp fixed by the pothole. 2. What's your all-time favourite video or computer game? Console? Fallout series. Computer? Rollercoaster Tycoon 2. Arcade? Ms. Pacman 3. Name one country you really hate (and if you like, say why) I think there are beautiful places in every country but as far as the ones I've been too, if I'm being honest, England was a bit underwhelming. Manchester was great but I had a pretty bad time in London. Sorry goofs and other brits... 4. What was/is your worst subject at school/college? Math. Easy. I'm awful. AWFUL. 5. Do you think DST is a good thing, or a bad thing? Outdated and stupid. 6. What's your main medium for watching TV programmes/films etc? Streaming from my phone to TV with services but I don't watch as much TV as I used to. |

Nothing. It's included in the subscription. I think mine is fifty or sixty quid a month, which covers two set-top boxes in my house.

Quid is slang for a pound, which is inaccurate as we're using Euros while they're still using pounds/quids, but I got used to using that phrase as a catchall for money and now I'm stuck with it. 50/60 Euro then. Pedant.
