New channel coming on?

Wakey, wakey, Charles, that's probably what Brian said, and his help
software, or his spell checker, misunderstood him!

Surely you mean "cream crackered", Brian, as in Cockney rhyming slang?

Yesterday I was asked by two people about a new channel that is coming on
soon. Both said they had seen the channel advertised on another TV
channel.
Does anyone know what they are talking about? Neither of them knew what
the
channel was going to be about, or what it was called etc.... Can some
kind
soul enlighten me as to this new channel that everyone seems to know
about,
but don't have any proper details of? I have searched around but have
failed to find any more details. Last night the name 'Fanfare' was
mentioned, but that might be way off, as the chap who mentioned it was not
at all sure.....

VIVA, Ch21? It's certainly been TV advertised, looks like a re-brand of
TMF.

I think 'cream cricketed' is a lovely expression. It must mean that delicous
state when you are physically exhaused after cricket on the village green,
and you settle down for your strawberries and cream.

It's because the fwits in the media think that the reason why Dave has
been so successful is because the channel changed it's name from it's
original one. There was an article in the Media Guardian where some
commentator was genuinely suggesting that this was part of the reason
for the success of Dave.

I'd rather watch a TV station called Dave than one called UK TV G2.

Indeed :-(

I don't watch TV stations; I watch the programmes, and the channel is an
utter irrelevance.

I am sort of in-between. I don't like Sky 1 the station but I like a lot of
the programs they put on. so I watch them despite them being on Sky 1.
( mostly American programs I have not liked much of sky's original
programming)

I Like channel 4 but have not watched much lately.

"Dave" sounds amateurish while UK TV G2 comes across as nothing at
all. I wouldn't waste time watching either just to find out what they
really are.

But at the same time that they changed their name they changed the
content that they broadcast. Now they show mostly repeats of very
popular programmes. It's no wonder that they are doing well, and nothing
to do with being called Dave or being the so called home of witty
banter.
