Half of us spend 14 years watching TV

 

A new survey shows that millions of Britons spend an astonishing 14 years watching television. Nearly six in 10 adults spend five hours a day, every day, in front of the box – or 14 years of their lives staring at the screen! The survey showed that women are more dependent on TV than men, and that more than a third of British families own two sets. It also found out about the activities people do while they watch. Eating is the most popular activity, followed by chatting on the phone and reading a book.

And it’s not just soap operas that make us switch on. 61 per cent use television’s Teletext for the latest football scores or the weather forecast. One industry expert commented: ‘TV has always influenced people’s attitudes and habits. And with the hundreds of new digital TV channels, we’re going to spend even more time in front of it.’
