ITV- A Request.

Please, please stop cross promoting "Britain's Got Talent" on unrelated programmes, this includes filling the News at Ten with BGT related stories, as you have done regularly this week as well as using the build up to the FA Cup final to have 'Everton Fan' Amanda Holden wishing luck to the team- whilst unsubtlely reminding viewers that BGT is on tonight.

Is 'Britain's Got Talent' the most unsuitably-named show on tv, I wonder...?

What's "Britain's got talent" when it's at home? Or are you being paid to promote it, whatever it is?

I've only watched it a couple of times, the acts are okay but how does Piers Morgan become an expert on 'talent'?

"What's "Britain's got talent" when it's at home? ".

A popular light entertainment programme so I've heard.

The past masters at cross-advertising are the BBC. But it's worse than that: the BBC includes cross selling in its "impartial" news service. Everytime Panorama comes up with some factoid, it's "news" apparently. Also, during the Proms, we were "educated" by having some know-nothing (who, apparently was able to play the piano) display her ignorance concerning some superb piece of music in the greater cause of advertising Dragons' Den.

That is true.
