**Analoguesat** · 25-10-2008

No news yet as to which tp will be used.

There will be no GMTV2 content on ITV4+1. GMTV2 will continue to be carried on ITV4, but this will not be staggercast on ITV4+1, which will simply carry a caption between 07:00 and 10:24 stating that programming starts at 10:25.

Therefore ITV4 +1 will only operate 1025-0700

Hi there, this stuff has been so interesting. I used to spend hours going through the stuff on DS, but here it is a lot more accessible (although did see you there on DS when scouring last night). I have to disagree with this comment though, cos DS:BB and its entertainment news is still pretty decent!! Just could not let that one slip through the net!!
