Viewers in Hertfordshire are being invited to have their say on what hits their screens

A new research panel is giving television fans across the county the opportunity to earn up to £70 simply for talking about TV.

Informal group discussions are to be held locally on behalf of key UK broadcasters and programme makers, where participants may be given a sneak peek of upcoming programmes, invited to help develop new programme ideas or even create brand new channels.

Sessions will be held in central venues both during the day and evening and typically last up to 2 hours, involving 6-8 participants led by a trained interviewer.

To sign up, potential participants are asked to complete a short questionnaire on their television viewing habits at theviewers.co.uk is free.
