The Television Close Down And Start Ups

The Television Close Down And Start Up Blog

It's a blog on start up and close downs of various international broadcasters that close down or start up.

I'd like peoples input, ideas and discussion on this topic past and present, mainly for international broadcasters since there is plenty of information from broadcasters from the UK and North America.

Thanks!

Great idea, and great videos so far.

I look forward to seeing it develop.

Thank you Rob.

I hope you continue to enjoy.

Also I realise I posted in the wrong forum I guess and thanks for moving moderators

Looks like I already have my guilty pleasure of 2008 sorted out then!

Great idea, nice content. Interesting to see how others do it!

Interesting site. Especially as it shows that what is now seen as taboo in the UK - the overnight closedown - remains alive and well in other countries.

I'd be more inclined to call it pointless than taboo.

Rubbish Sput - we all know that the testcard is a far better use of bandwidth than News 24.

Porn would put them both in the shade. Even granny porn.

Maybe not News 24, but certainly ITV Play!?

then why not have Testcard porn, then everyone would be happy,

back in the 90's when 24 TV start it was only filled up with News 24, and on itv, pointless stuff from 3am - 6am

Maybe the BBC should rent out there channel from 2am - 6am? even to a porn broadcaster at the weekends?

BBC could kept Mondays for the deaf service, Tuesday for other service then, Wednesday - Sunday rent out the space,

Thanks for all the kind words, I've uploaded one more video for the night.
