Default Talking Over Credits- Grrrrr!

I hate it when a programme, or worse a film, or worse still a film you really like finishes and you are still thinking about it and some **** mutes the end music and invades your space with twaddle about what's on ITV65 or BBC17.

Get lost! There is no time left for reflection about what you have just seen.

I know I'm in the minority, partly because I'm usually the last one to leave a cinema cos I read the credits, but do others get peeved at the way TV has gone?

Absolutely ..... it's bad manners, much the same as cutting in on someones conversation.

But hey! Who are we? Only the paying public, we're nobodies! ...

I agree too.

When I took my son to see Pirates of the Caribbean last year as soon as the credits started rolling the cinema emptied. We had been tipped off to stay till the end.

There was another minute or so of the film at the very end. They all missed it!

Serves them right!

Sometimes there are out-takes and other things during the credits and somtimes some of the credits are done as a spoof.

Agreed. I also hate that they seem to have taken to showing coming shortlys during the credits too which makes it hard to read when they a squashed into a corner. All to cram in some more ads. I hate that too now I've mentioned it that all the shows are now "sponsored"
