ITV have

'has' not 'have'

won the new slot on

Freeview along with channel 4.

I can see ITV4 is going to be as bad as ITV 1,2 and 3 and Ch4 is
thinking about a games channel.
What a waste, these two slots could have been used for something better.
Even expanding ABC1 would have been a better bet.

Just typical, money talks.


So long as it talks accurately, I do not mind.



For goodness sake, stop picking people up on their grammar or spelling,

This is the problem, repeats, all repeats and ITV4 will be the same.

Shouldn't that be 'grammatical errors' ...?


Put that in to bring out more anal retentives, like you ! ?

I'll say my digital prayers for that one.

I agree absolutely with the above but it depends on your age and ITV3 is
not intended for the the little pop twinkies but the grey and wealthy
oldies.



Well, I'm youngish and well-to-do and I enjoy it too. Beats the hell out of
ITV1 and ITV2.

I think you may be missing the whole point of this multi channel
broadcasting thing ;-)

(there is not enough new content to fill the existing analogue channels,
so what did you expect to get on all the extras, the potters wheel again?)

We're getting that one in October for certain....

Selflishly i hope it goes onto Multiplex C then i stand a good chance of
getting it at my new place (in group for Nottingham, just out of group
for Waltham, unlike Multiplex 2 which is right at the wrong end of the
band in both cases!)

I think I would prefer the test card.

Multiplex D : Movie Channel, with games channel during downtime

Why would a movie channel have a downtime? Aren't there enough movies
around?

Why do you think that my response was not sensible?


Shouldn't that be 'grammatical errors' ...?

"Should that not be 'grammatical errors'?" is better.
