question of the day: Do you turn on the TV out of habit, hoping to find something to watch, or only when you know there’s something you don’t want to miss?

There’s a lot of real-life drama behind the creation of the show, including the controversial involvement of women such as Verity Lambert at a high level, so this should be a juicy story.
