I want my MTV Two

My TV is now digital. UPC arrived on time, the technician was a nice guy and didn’t smell. And though he had some problems initialising the set top box, it eventually worked as it should.

I don’t have much use for the E! or Fashion channel, or all the bloody Discovery stuff, but I can’t express how great it is to finally have an MTV channel (MTV2) that actually plays music. MTV2 Europe is British owned, they show the NME chart show and the presenters are English, as are the ads. Thank you, lord. They just showed Kaiser Chiefs, Interpol, Magic Numbers and Gorillaz videos. *Cries tears of happiness*. Don’t laugh. I’ve had years and years of MTV/TMF Holland, mostly R&B crap presented by Dutch nit wits, interspersed with the worst bits of MTV USA (Jackass, Road Rules, etc.)

Now I just have to wait (another ten years?) for the rest of their package to become a little bit more interesting.

I may be the only 42 year woman on the planet to get worked up over this. Does ’50 quid spinster’ exist?
