Sky needs a decent crime channel, dedicated to nothing but crime. It could have these programmes on it:

The Bill
Silent Witness
COPS (american programme)
Murder She Wrote

Many other programmes apart from the above suggest could also be shown, and occasionally a crime film could be shown. What does everyone else think?: Do we need a crime channel?

They do show a number of crime-based programmes on The History Channel, and Channel 5 have also shown some. Check listings for full details.

The problem would be buying the rights to all these programmes.

UK Gold holds the rights to old episodes of The Bill for instance
