EastEnders

HJL posted:
I just saw an advert for the new schedule filling. Sorry if I’ve missed it but is there a reason 4 weekly episodes from 2008 are going on iPlayer? As apposed to any other year?! Is it viewed a dramatic peak in their history? Nice little option for people... I for one feel like I’ve maxed out streaming over the last 13 weeks!

And three 2008 episodes are airing on BBC Four late Sunday night/early Monday morning, which I’m presuming are from the same week.

Soap Opera Repeats Channel

Neil Jones posted:
And yet you can go to the States and see things like Nick at Nite and Gameshow Network, which are quite happy to air stuff dating back to the 1950s sometimes, and they make a success of it, enough anyway to do it. Okay we did have Nick at Nite over here as a strand for a while, but it was just the same programming with different bumpers and dropping a repeat of The MIddle and also Neighbours in as well.
The oldest show Nick at Nite shows nowadays is Full House, which began in the late 80s, and the only pre-21st century show Gameshow Network regularly shows is Match Game from the 70s (though they do show What’s My Line and I’ve Got a Secret for two weeks overnight around Christmas time).

They do still have other networks like MeTV and Antenna TV that still old content from as early as the 50s, and Buzzr has picked up the old gameshow slack from Gameshow Network, so the States definitely has more appeal for the really old stuff than we do.

What was your favorite regional ITV station growing up?

Jez posted:
Another thing that was shown among various regions was Jobfinder. I think HTV had this overnight at one point. I remember it was a regular show on Central and YTV as well (possibly other regions). YTV had it for quite a well, into the 2000s I think.

YTV’s show was also shown on Tyne Tees until about the early-mid 2000s, by which point it only had a few years left before ending in 2006.

Saw a Celebrity Gogglebox USA promo on Sunday for new episodes, even though that’s finished and isn’t on at all right now!

Davina and Rylan to front Big Brother show for E4

Noticed during the talent show that there was a shot of Barrymore after his performance wearing his normal clothes but another shot later on had him back in his German clothes. Wonder why?

I am not sure if this is from VM UK or Ireland's EPG.

That’s the UK EPG, because NVTV only broadcasts in Northern Ireland.

Nope, not going to happen.

TV Forum: New for (the middle of) 2020

Liking the new look, it’s very clean.

Also, there’s two bugs I’ve spotted in The Gallery where all the latest posts in the threads are said to been uploaded at whatever time it currently is, some threads (like the BBC Rebrand) don’t have the latest page numbers showing on the main forum page, and outside of The Gallery, you can’t go through a user’s posts past page 1 on their post pages.

Speaking of user’s post pages, you can’t access them for banned members (e.g. BM11) anymore (doubt that’s a bug though).

BBC News (UK) presentation - Reith launch onwards

Wondering why Breakfast continued until 10am on News Channel when normally they end at 9am if BBC One cuts away.

Do they? I thought it always aired the normal length on a weekend?


The Queen’s birthday celebrations are happening this morning, so Breakfast ended early in order to fit in Saturday Kitchen.

And usually, it only airs in full on Saturdays, on Sundays it ends early for the Match of the Day repeat when that’s on.
