This post is going to be another one of my “rants” but it’s probably one that annoys me quite a lot. When watching a usual half hour long television programme on a channel which is privately owned, the adverts usually follow this structure:

- commercial break (12 mins)
- programme continues (15 mins)
- programme ends (27 mins)
- commercial break
- next programme starts (00 mins)
(XX mins) are the number of minutes into the programme.

- programme starts (00 mins)
- commercial break (05 mins)
- programme continues (10 mins)
- commercial break (14 mins)
- programme continues (19 mins)
- programme ends (30 mins)
- next programme starts (00 mins)
