kind of, just promo of their show instead of ads, i think 5 months ago was when it started doing ads

i just can't believe that extended 24 hr format for sky/telewest people not freeview

well i'm only missing 1 program, rest of shows i've seen before

hi C4ve honey.

All well with you?
I'm worried about NYPD being on More4. How much notice will you be able to give in advance of it starting?
i dont want to have to rely on others..... but it seems stupid to get Sky just for one show

Why do they have to muck about so????
digital is really patchy down here

Hi BD,

As soon as there's any more info, I'll let you know, and I'll confirm specific details as soon as a start date falls within the two week window.

Digital Terrestrial coverage should become more comprehensive in the run up to analogue switch-off, though I appreciate that's not much comfort right now.

Hopefully, there'll be other shows on More4 that will appeal to you.

Thanks C4 for Kyra Sedgwick's "the closer" last night-another high quality u.s drama,Keep up the good work,cheers!

forgot it

ABC1 channel 24hrs now on sky.... and on freeview finishes at 6pm... why this ?? anyone know. I noticed last night on sky its running all the time.

change of topic

any idea if c4 website has a list of presenters who take part in the '20 questions adverts'
you know the one where the tell us thier favourite word, or food, or the last time they cried. etc etc

I don't believe there is a list of the "Faces Of 4" on the website, I'm afraid. Why not start a thread on it and ask people to post the names they can think of? Off the top of my head I can think of Richie Benaud, Gordon Ramsay, Jamie Oliver, Dermot O'Leary, Jon Snow, Krishnan Guru Murthy, Martin Sheen, Jimmy Carr, Leigh Francis (Avid Merrion), David Morrissey... and quite a few American actors from Lost, Scrubs etc...

cheers, there have been quite a lot of these, and not a lot of names common between them - the list is going to grow....

Will 4 be purchasing the rights to air Season 5 of Smallville and Season 9 of Stargate Sg-1?

Also, given the current viewing figures for Lost is there any interest in picking up season 2?

We have the rights to Smallville #5 and Lost #2. No word on scheduling as yet.

We haven't got Stargate #9 yet.

Excellent. I would assume sometime next year for both (Seeing as it hasn't aired in the US yet for Smallville and we havn't seen all of season 1 of Lost ).

Thanks for the info.

Do you have any idea on if you will be getting the rights for a new american show called Bones which stars David Boreanaz

Since 4 has shown Alias before, any information on the fourth season of the show? Channel 5 finished airing the third season a while back after shunting it back to a Midnight viewing.

Actually Sky One have the rights.

Smallville- Series four is due on Channel 4 next year. Possibly in the spring.

Bones- No, we don't have the rights to this.

Alias- No idea what's happening with this. I'm shocked to hear that Five have sidelined the show, as I remember several forum members saying how great the channel was at treating acquired programmes and their audience with "respect".

so do five

despite poor viewing figures they have shown season 2 and 3 in a regular timeslot, and will show season 4 early next year..........as far as Im concerned a regular slot each week is preferable to channel 4's 'on for a week, off for a month.....on for a year, off for 2 years' policy

^alias is one of those piggie in the middle, pass me around the channels to see whether they can make a ratings success of me. when its a really a show with a cult following, not a huge 3 million audience big winner. So five, sky one, channel 4 and bravo all seem to ravish in holding the rights, though 2 of the above show no interest in showing them, for good reasons of course

i saw without a trace featured in more 4 advert, curioustity really asks whether that is a sign that the next series will probably be shown there? like the west wing?

C4, a quote for you -
"If digiguide is correct, from midnight next Wednesday, Point Pleasant will be repeated on e4, and they will also show the 5 episodes that were not shown the first time round."
True?

Also, will Reunion be on E4 only or both C4/E4?
