Re: classix programms

It doesn't show them because they rebranded the channel a few years ago to a comedy channel.

There are no plans for a classic TV channel any time soon.

Re: classic programmes

The bill is really good, TiVo recorded it one day and quite enjoy it, they should bring it back.

Re: classic programmes

the old gold was loads better, now its just the same old programs repeated again and again and again, i remember when uk gold gave you a real choice

Cable channels were better in the days before digital when they put efforts in to the channel, i remember with nick used to be "live" in the holidays, and Disney, and MTV, and there was always something to watch, instead of just repeats of top gear and only fools

Tv channels just dont bother these days, its just pre recorded messages and programs that are repeated 3 times in the same day (on dave) sometimes

Re: classic programmes

I would love to see a channel that brings us 'classic progs' Love they neighbour, Till Death us do part, Z Cars, Juliet Bravo not the crap we have now,

I know that we have UK Gold etc, but there progs are rubbish compared to the above.

Re: classic programmes

Thats because UK Gold was rebranded to be a totally comedy channel instead of just a classic TV channel.

They're repeating Crimewatch? Surely everyone knows how it ends?
