1. What's your favourite TV network?
I watch a lot on Sky Cinema (multiple film channels), Boomerang and Cartoon Network.

2. If you could create your own channel, what would it be?
A mixture of films, cartoons and a selection of my favourite shows starting with ones that aren't currently showing on the telly or on streaming. It'd be 24/7 without those annoying sales pitches that are on a loop on a lot of channels.

3. What TV show did you watch as a child, that you wish they would bring back?
It's between Superted and Count Duckula but I'd be very cautious going in to any potential revival/reboot with how badly the reboot of Danger Mouse turned out. For live action it's got to be Fun House but with better presenters.

4. What show have you always hated, and wonder why they ever made such a dumb show?
Soaps in general. All reality shows most of which are scripted (writers uncredited), are everywhere and whenever an advert for one of them comes on the telly I can feel my brain disintegrating.

5. What TV show's seasons would you buy on DVD?
I *had three tall full bookcases of DVDs for a variety of shows and films. Physical media is king in my home especially as a lot of what I watch isn't available on streaming platforms and when it is it gets taken down fairly quickly.
*I'm in the process of replacing some of my current furniture, so my DVDs are in boxes for a bit, and the bookcases along with a few other things are going out to a local charity.
