We'll, here is a reason NOT to throw out the old.
At last a free day to enjoy my retirement. Poor weather so a chance to binge watch on Netflix the early series of Line of Duty. Then around 10.30am the internet goes down . . . and VM TV too. Estimated fix time according to My Virgin Media 6.30pm.
All is not lost for my relaxing day as I have many programmes recorded on my V6 waiting to be watched. Currently enjoying the excellent ITV series Victoria.
I know it is extremely rare the internet plays up . . . but it has sure happened today!

My lad has just come back from work looking forward to watching Game of Thrones on Now TV upstairs . . . but still no internet.
He is now having to watch recorded Ghosts on my TV.
Come back internet!
