Yes but I was thinking more of the share of subs revenue that UKTV gains from being included in the package.

Another possibility is really and home merge into one channel and Eden and yesterday merge into one too this would free up 2 slots on freeview that uktv own and could possibly launch eden+1 and really+1.

Anything is possible with UKTV but I can't see Eden doing very well as an FTA channel. It's the old problem of niche channels only attracting a small number of viewers, which doesn't really appeal to advertisers. I believe that Yesterday +1 is still included in one of UKTV's DTPS (Freeview) licences, so they could easily launch that as a placeholder until they decide what to do.
