    I've looked back on old programmes and the voices are crisp clear with good vocabulary, now it's loud music and wispering voices image

    YOU KNOW THOSE POLYSTYRENE 'BEANS' THAT YOU GET IN PACKAGES. THAT'S WHAT THE BACKGROUND MUSIC REMINDS ME OF - A LOAD OF STUFF IN THE PACKAGE THAT OBSCURES THE GIFT.

    In London. Keen but lazy.

    I don't mind the music, but I did think , last week on Planet Earth, that it was louder than I felt it needed to be and for some  it would detract.

    Runny , I'm totally with you on canned laughter. Pansy's chip analogy again, right there.

  • I've never found music on Planet Earth programmes intrusive, but tonight we're watching Ben Fogle's Great African Migration, and Golly Gosh!!!  the music is soooooooo intrusive and annoying.  There are three layers of sound - the sound of what's going on on screen, the voice over, and then some portentious and totally inappropriate music which is far too loud!
