Earlier this year, Italian TV channel Class TV was shut down, and Sky TG 24 took its place, making it available on terrestrial airwaves.

Just after the final programme for Class TV was Finished, the channel aired fillers on the loop for hours (almost a half-an-hour of filler: part 1, part 2), before going straight into the 7 am bulletin:


But I have some questions:
1. What happened to Class TV feeds on other platforms (not its surviving sister channels)?
2. Does Sky TG 24 on DTT differ from the channel on other platforms in terms of scheduling? (Even a minor difference matters.)
