Loads of them Greg.

Sky Scottish, although to be honest it was a bit of a blessing when it went.

I really liked some of the programs on [.tv] It would of been nice for some of them like "Chips with everything" to switch to Bravo or something.

Oh yea, that was a great channel, it showed some of the good old ITV stuff that wasn't on UK Gold.

The Comedy Channel (before SKY Movies Gold).............
SKY Soap.

It always made me laugh in the days of Astra 1A/1B/1C when SKY would raise their subscription and for that they would provide five new channels but all on the same transponder so really you got one new channel.
