Well, I consider this as the expats who complain so much about BBCA airing "Star Trek: TNG" reruns and endless Gordon Ramsay and "Top Gear"(and used to complain about "Changing Rooms and "Ground Force") either putting up or shutting up (along with Acorn, of course). If they want their damn "EastEnders" and "Corrie" so bad (or if they're game show fans, "Pointless" and "The Chase"), they better pay for it.
