Re: Coming Soon to Freeview 2012
 
Two new channels launches on Freeview.

TV Stars has launch on Freeview Channel 62.
TV News has relaunch on Freeview Channel 90.

You may have noticed that Freeview are not using Freeview Channel 61 so I think with the new channel stream set to launch after May 1st 2012 Freeview are keeping Channel 61 free for Yesterday +1 to launch on that new stream.

Price Drop get extra hours on Freeview.

The Web is reporting that from June 29th Price Drop is broadcasting to until 2am on Freeview Channel 37* on Mux C.

*The extra hours maybe only in the Digital only areas of England, Wales and Scotland.

Q: WHO WILL USE PRICE DROP OLD STREAM ON MUX C (8AM - 12AM) IN DIGITAL ONLY AREAS?
A: Noone knows.

But I think the following may happen.
-Big Deal moves from Mux D to Mux C to broadcast from 8am - 12am.
-That let Yesterday +1 to launch on the 24 hour stream on Mux C.
