For the 1st time in I don't know how long, I watched terrestrial television thanks to over-eating and not being able to reach the DVD controller with my foot.
Watched about 10 mins of something called "You've Been Framed", a collection of clips of hilarious things caught on videotape.
Now I'm not Mr Sensitive (it may shock you to learn) but there were a couple of clips that had me wincing and thinking "Yeah, nice timing".
They consisted of the sea rushing over a hotel swimming pool area and hilariously washing towels etc away whilst holiday makers ran for safety.
Ok, so it was hardly a tsunami but still, you'd think the programmers would think "Maybe we should check the content?", as I didn't find it hilariously amusing to watch?

At least it confirmed my prejudice towards television being run by, and for, morons.

I don't think Harry Hill commentates over the tsunami footage.
Although I wouldn't put it past ITV

Are you sure you didn't accidentally catch the evening news instead?

Yep. It was the flooding swimming pool area that made me think "Sensitive timing", as well as two people being pummelled by incoming waves against rocks.
I wasn't in tears at the humanity of it, but I did think "Assfaces" before the missus turned it off (to save her ears from the ranting) and we watched all of Kevin Smith's movies instead.

Someone probably fell into a paddling pool as well, sending gallons of water cascading over the garden. I stake my life on it.
