I noticed Auf Weidefsen Pet had storylines set in Thailand this week (didn't watch it, so can't comment!).

Also, Sky One have a natural disaster drama scheduled for Sunday and Monday.

Is the 'missing' episode of Mr Bean being shown now on ITV1 (19:30) or is it another episode?

No - i think it's the episode that was already scheduled

A couple of questions:

Arrow Which version of the appeal have Five and Sky been screening?

Arrow How has this affected the Travel shopping channels and programming. I notice Wish You Were Here returns this week and there are bound to be pre-recorded features on affected areas. Will these be heavily edited?

Also, a benefit concert is planned for January 22nd at the Millennium Stadium, Cardiff. Don't know if anyone has picked up the TV rights yet, but events like this usually end up on the BBC.

I'm not normally a fan of Telethons, or never-ending charity all-night TV events, but surely if there was ever a case for one, this may be it. I'm surprised none of the broadcasters have thought about holding such an event, which would surely rake in millions.

The three commercial Aussie networks are planning a similar event to be simulcast on all channels and jointly produced. I wonder if the networks here will do the same - or if it the Cardiff concert will only be screened on one channel?
