When you go beyond the data carried along with the channel you're watching, you are automatically switched to the Frontrow preview channel...

At least I think that's how it works.

Once upon a time, there was no option to view your programme at all, if you switched to the EPG you got Front Row preview whether you liked it or not. Pity us Sky users, we don't even get movie previews, just horrible muzak.
Cheers Chris - at least we get something better on Ntl then!

Still it would be nice if they re-implemented being able to jump from 8am to 7pm (or whenever) via a drop-down then have to scroll through the hours... maybe I just want too much
