IIRC Breeze lasted a few weeks longer on NTL than it did on Sky and On Digital for some reason. The last thing they showed was some bizarre American gameshow called Strip Poker.


So did Carlton Cinema.

It didn’t, Carlton Cinema remained on NTL for about 11 months after ITV Digital closed. Carlton Select closed in February 2000 on Cable and On Digital. It was replaced by Discovery Wings on On Digital and Carlton Cinema on Analogue Cable. (Or it was for NTL at that time.)

Actually I’ve just realised it was Discovery Wings replaced Carlton World, Carlton Food Network was simply extended to broadcast in the evenings for On Digital.

For Freeview, you need to be able to access COM 7 to tune in Merit. If you have BBC News HD on your TV/receiver then you should be able to get Merit.
