It looks like this channel has been "inspired" by British TV before. This is the day of its launch in 2005:

Lenodal.com uses embedded RealMedia clips, unlike YouTube, which uses Flash. Do you have a RealPlayer installed on your computer?

The ABC-2 video ident looks at first glance more like somewhere in Quebec than in Australia.

Any idea where it was actually recorded?

That's obviously very similar!

Wasn't there a Chinese channel that recently had a legal issue for producing news titles very similar to something from Germany?
