I tend to record anything serious that I want to watch and then fast forward the adverts. Films series etc.
Adverts drive me nuts especially insurance and ambulance chasers.
The bbc are annoying keep showing 'asverts' for programmes coming up in a 6 weeks or more over and over and over again. I.e. doctor who, strictly, and dont get me started on the Scottish coverage.

Must say Sky-Plus has been a God-Send; not only can we record and watch at our convenience while skipping adverts but I can also pause, go make a cuppa or do the washing up etc. and then return to view the programme and skip the adverts.
