The Coach and Horses, Stoke Newington

I like this pub and go in most weeks but they need to review their policy on the TV. I was watching the cricket in there for about 3 hours and they insisted on turning it off 20 minutes from the end because apparently the silent TV in the corner was a huge cause of distraction for everyone else in the pub. I don't think anybody else had even noticed it was turned on. Anyway we obviously had to leave to watch the end elsewhere.

I believe this is related to a post a few down where someone questioned having sky news on in silence. They also referred to this being on the projector / big screen. Well now it is not the big screen it is a TV up in a corner so hardly distracting and it is also a little different from sky news when it is live sport and someone has been watching it for 3 hours and has specifically asked for it to be left on.
