Half of Brits have ‘cheated’ on partners – by skipping ahead on TV boxsets

One in four adults have chosen to take up a new hobby after being inspired by a TV show or film. Photo released March 30 2025. A poll of 4,158 television viewers found 18 to 24 year olds are twice as likely as the average adult to do this, with half having been inspired to try something new. More than four in 10 (44 per cent) of those in this age group have gone as far as changing their style and fashion choices after being influenced by a character on the screen, compared to just 18 per cent of all adults.
