    Yep. It was the 4 WWF pay per views that werent being shown on sky sports. Started with Royal Rumble 2000 which featured a pretty violent match with Mick Foley and HHH. The violence must have scared people cos the next event they showed, Backlash was shown on a time delay and was heavily edited.

    The same year the rot set in with Big Brother CH4 also showed Jam, the most out there, darkest comedy imaginable. I'll never forget watching the first episode with no idea what it was going to be about or that Chris Morris was involved.

    Channel 4 is the only channel that would, and would get away with, broadcasting the statement that "Paedophiles now control an area of the internet the size of Ireland" (Brass Eye)

    And this (from the future Fr Ted creators)

    "The Cork Sword"

    😂

    "Try telling that to these bog-brain Murphys, you'd have more chance of getting a blow job from the Pope."

    🤣

    In Cavan there was a great fire / Judge McCarthy was sent to inquire / It would be a shame / If the nuns were to blame / So it had to be caused by a wire.
