I have fond memories of watching a rerun of Supermarket Sweep when I was having my FullFat washed and dried a few years ago |

When England got to the Rugby World Cup Final in 2019, it fell on a day that I was shooting. As the game was being played down under, kick off was around breakfast time, so we watched the first half in the bar where we’d met for breakfast. I was then asked by the shoot captain if I wouldn’t mind using my car as guns transport, to which I said fine, but why not use your Disco? Well, he said, your car has a telly and we can watch the second half on the way to the first drive.

I would watch it more, but it shuts down after three minutes or so when the engine is not running...

I use it occasionally if there's something on and waiting for her indoors shopping or whatever, but not so much now as I need a new battery so I get about 10 minutes with the engine off and too expensive to keep the engine idling just to watch the TV.

I watch it while my other half is in Tesco's/Sainsbury's or Aldi's, it does shut down after 10 minutes but a push of a button (radio) on it comes again for another 10 minutes, when the battery starts draining it shuts down after 3 minutes.

I generally don't ever use these systems, but did catch some of the football last week whilst waiting to collect my boys one evening. Worked perfectly (and for longer than I was anticipating without the battery intervention warning)! 2011 Range Rover Vogue SE 4.4 TDv8 |

On the day of the late Queen's passing, I was driving up to Wasdale Head with my mate to run a chairty walk the next day. We watched the rolling footage all the way up (well, he did!) with the rolling BBC footage on the screen, and talk radio on the speakers, listening to all of the discussion.

I'm impressed that you had digital TV reception on your way up to Wasdale Head |

The kids in the back are now too old now to watch DVD's, they are glued to their mobile phones |
