More interesting would be the number who don't own a TV at all.
I am thinking of joining them.

I thought it was going to be another of your typo's, 66? Surely I thought, it will be 666?

Only the spawn of the Devil would still be claiming a B&W Telly whilst watching in Colour, Oh, yes, I bet they are!

I'll have you know MargaretR and myself have a healthy symbiotic relationship going here on accyweb, I disagree with everything she's says and she reciprocates, (it helps keep our post counts up).

Re: Come on own up

It's not really so surprising...after all it's only a few decacades since East Lancs converted to gas and electrickery.. god knows how you lot coped before discovering the wheel in the late 1950's .

There's nowt wrong with black & white TV...most girls find it highly romantic ( providing they can see the piccy) and what better than having your arm round a nice blondie while watching the last 10 minutes of Casablanca. It means you're on a cert.

My question is - where exactly in the TV do I stick the SCART lead from my digibox?

Black, white, or coloured, TVs are just so big nowadays, and take up too much room.

I dumped mine ages ago.
