...that's 'higher than the launch of I'm a Celebrity, Get Me Out Of Here, which also made it ITV1's most watched programme this year.'

'ITV clocks year's biggest audience for England v USA'

Advertisers will certainly be seeing ITV as the best vehicle to peddle their wares!

It has been noted in the media, albeit almost under the radar, that Dark has forged links with companies in Qatar. Interestingly, the UK has more going on there than one might think!
This may be off topic somewhat - but interesting all the same:

Seaking1,

Oh, no no no!
Other countries are not experiencing it at the same level the UK is shackled to Brexit.
If we have less debt, lower deficit & lower taxes than much of the G7. Why are we the only country planning cuts and pushing public services to beyond breaking?
The OBR has cited Brexit as being a major obstacle to growth. That’s the same OBR that Liz Truss ordered not to evaluate her mini budget!
If you wanna trust the Tories after 12 years of failure and bringing the country to the brink, you’re mad.

Last word from me on this, back to Dark.

Seaking1,
You don’t need to be Sherlock Holmes to realise they’ve factored in losing the next GE.
Their excessive borrowing will have to be inherited by the next government.
The big Payback will be 2025 on - they’re passing the buck.

If the re-hash of an 80s Australian soap is the vision of Amazon - then why are some people placing them as the favourites in the race?
No contest - we’ll do better.

That will be about 12 years ago, one suspects!

Not too sure about recession proof - but yes the business model will likely be more resilient than most to the impending downturn.

...in final test phase.

RE: Today

Listening to Jeremy Hunt blaming the huge downturn in the economy on everything from Covid;Putin;Global pressures and supply chains.
Claiming we are doing better than France, Germany and Japan doesn’t stack up.
The latest reputable graphs do not back up any of his claims!
Not a mention of Liz Truss’ disastrous unfunded mini budget or indeed Brexit, which has played more than a minor part.
So, in retrospect - Today’s announcements fo far do not cut much ice.

Yes, Phyl,
Agreed, it bodes well. Here’s the same story form another source:

Brazilian carrier Azul has ordered a further three Rolls-Royce:

Phill111,

One reiterates IT’S NOT GOOD - under any circumstances.
Your logic is too simplistic, Poland have right to unilaterally respond, and that would be a major escalation. One is not proposing they would do so. But, there’s two old phrases that com to mind. The first applies to almost any conflict and the second brings the Yanks to mind.
You may be familiar with them? Sleepwalking into war is never easy to visualise in the real world, eh?

The Fog of War

Trigger Happy

No, it certainly isn’t good.
Wars can be started by mistake you know!

Yeah’ that’s logical - unfortunately we are dealing with Vladimir Putin and there’s nothing logical about that man.
