The property one interested me until I saw Robert Nemeth is a presenter. Total greaseball.

Let's see how long it takes for it to be taken over by the loonies.

 

[Hyperion]

Is it available via the Sky box then?

 

[Stat Brother]

The Ocho



Very funny film, even with 'him' in it.

Is it available via the Sky box then?

Doesn't appear to be..at least on launch date.

The London equivalent isn't too awful, often has peep show and coupling in the evenings.

What a shame

The London equivalent isn't too awful, often has peep show and coupling in the evenings.

The problem with London Live is it trying to aim programming at 8M diverse inhabitants of the capital of which very few are tuning in. Latest TV has a chance of being one of the better minority channels on local cable and Freeview providing the advertising revenues are there. In Humberside no-one will admit to watching Estuary TV and some say the viewing figures are massaged by Virgin Media customers flicking through the channels on the box with their remote.

'Local' TV. Just like local radio it starts with loads of stations (Southern FM for instance) that sell out to a national company (Heart). Same as BBC Radio Brighton which became Sussex and is now BBC Radio in the South most of the time. The whole idea of going digital was to enable more local channels to broadcast. We'll see. But best of luck to them.

 

[Tricky Dicky]

We have little enough news to fill a half-hour South East Today every day, let alone a whole channel for a smaller catchment area

 

[BRIGHT ON Q]

Albion Burnley on at the moment

 

[BRIGHT ON Q]

Agustein looking useful!!

 

[Sergei's Celebration]

I love the channel.

It does remind me how good our squad was back then, upson, Spanish Dave, Ulloa, pig, Buckley, ward...what the hell happened?!?

 

[BRIGHT ON Q]

we really do look so much better.Crofts ,ince and Agustien look a really good midfield against the team that finished 2nd.

 

[Sergei's Celebration]

What has happened to Augustien. Oscar didnt play him much and Sami obviously doesnt rate him.

 

[BRIGHT ON Q]

it can only be his attitude because he has the ability

 

[Insel affe]

Ha how times change they are banging on about how the fans love jones

 

[Sergei's Celebration]

The other amazing thing about this oscar team is we can defend. Unlike the team now. Watching this makes me sad about what we have become this season.

 

[Insel affe]

Jesus that was a good goal, we looked good back then.

How times change
