Well, OK, no it doesn't. But that theme music... oh ITV, how could you!
It was tasteless enough when the BBC picked Handel's Culloden party stomp about how those chippy Jockos don't like the feel of cold steel up 'em. But pumping out Kasabian four times a day? This really puts the tin lid on things.
The scruffy indie chancers' filthy violation of David Bowie's Heroes is possibly the worst cover version of a classic number since Duran Duran took on Public Enemy's 911 Is A Joke. If there was any such thing as karmic retribution, each and every one of ITV's 5m+ viewers would be allowed to crump the neck of Kasabian axeman Serge Pizzorno's guitar right into his ossicles; then he'd know what bleeding from the ears feels like.

Oh, and Ian Wright is a... but there's simply no point moaning about Ian Wright any more, is there.
