Do we know what TP yet?
 
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!! :-rofl2

Keep up good work though and see you over at DS :) (username same)
 
Hi wanted to get the weekly reminders via email of this thread so that main reason for posting.I find this part of site very interesting.I think the time when 28 degree,s will have many new updates are limited since the E.P.G is closed,Still it was great when It was new&around the web or by Manual searching You would never know what You might find testing there ;-)
