If they combined Strictly with Run the Risk it might be worth watching.

Are they just going to keep showing this until the electricity is cut off?

Most likely.

Then we'd end up with this!

Either then, or when Arqiva cut them off and/or Sky removes them from the EPG. Either way, given it hasn't happened already, I doubt it'll happen before Tuesday.

I think Easter weekend is like Christmas in that there'll be a change-freeze - channels can't be removed, added or any other changes made.

Sky seem to be pretty quick at removing channels so I imagine they'll go on Tuesday.

There is no hope for Sit-Up TV. No company is going to buy Sit-Up TV, are they?

I don't think so. I think it might be a sign that home shopping television, might be on the way out, as online shopping grows in effectiveness.

Quick note to those after the music from my earlier post; the URL has changed to - as the link was posted on another forum filled with vile trolls; I'll be taking it down tonight around 8pm - the bandwidth its consumed has been more than expected!

Edit:


One of their members has decided to upload them all to his own site, and credit someone else for finding them and not you.

These slides are not being broadcast from the studios. They are inserted further up the line by the transmission company in case there is a sudden loss of video/audio - in this instance the slides are technically correct as there was a loss of video - the administrators yanked the cables out! Smile

Either will happen on Tuesday:

The administrators will bring the galleries back online broadcasting a revolving slide advising affected customers of their rights, or simply direct them to a website for more info with a phone number.

Or BSkyB will remove them from the EPG for not showing any moving images for over 48 hours.

I expect the former will happen as they will want to advise customers of their next steps. And the EPG fees are probably not due for a short while....

I know, more power to 'em. I don't want to be credited for it (which is why I only uploaded it for a limited time anyway). It is also the reason I didn't post them over there, pretty immature bunch.

As it stands, sit-up ltd. still own the rights to those tracks - with the administrators looking to recoup money; they might not take kindly to people flaunting the companies property.

I don't believe this is true, as price drop still exhibits the strange flashing line issue it had every time it showed an ident or a trail, which would suggest to me that the slide is indeed coming from the gallery. However, I'm happy to be proven wrong.

Here's a question - why is the 2003-2007 music called (as I'm led to believe) Bob's Bongos, when clearly the only bongos they ever had in the music was in 2000 (which I always thought was Bob's Bongos).
