More adverts than TV programme and the unreliable app never fails or buffers for the ads whilst frequently failing when the programme starts. The "12 minutes of ads per hour" ofcom rule doesn't apply to online or catch-up, and Channel 4 seem to have taken this completely to heart. We recently watched 6 minutes of programme before having to endure 6 minutes of ads (including sponsorship and trailers). So Channel 4 has decided it's okay to broadcast as many ads as programmes. We thought we'd give the paid ad-free version a try, and when we pressed play the first thing we saw was an advert. After Googling it we found the ad-free version still shows "some" ads so we deleted the app. There's just too many good alternative platforms who even seem to get the same programmes over time. We even found the same programme we were watching on a different ad-free platform.
