Flextech in general have very low standards as far as viewing quality is concerned. Apart from horrible logos, the horrible scheduling (endless runs of the same 20 or so programs) on all their 'classic TV' channels, the intrusive Filmflex advert on OD, too many adverts, extra sponsorship etc etc. UKGold was originally free to air on satellite and only went encrypted on Sky to stop foreign viewing. Given that they should all be free on any package, they're getting the advertising income and that should be enough considering WE already paid for the production of the majority of their programs in our license fee.
