Speaking for myself and I would probably say other sci-fi TV fans enjoy having the chance to see Farscape and other shows like this in this post midnight time-slot . Especially since there's absolutely no chance of seeing these type of shows in prime time, it's a fantastic opportunity for new fans and old to see shows that they want to see. I admit I don't stay up late watching myself instead I set my video recorder.
I also welcome other late night repeats and movies during the night and sometimes get to see some real gems tucked in a amongst the "quantity". Only last week I happened to be up late and watched a BBC documentary about the atom. Now if the channel had "went to bed" I would not have seen it, nor known of its existence.
Over the years I've seen a lot of entertaining shows and films that never appeared before midnight, to the best of my knowledge. So there's no way in hell I would want BBC2 or any other channel to go to bed, well except ITV if they're only going to do stupid phone-in quizzes. But even ITV used to show some good stuff back in the day. I remember when I was in high school in the late Eighties and early Nineties I used to record this Vietnam war documentary, some American movie box-office programme and a comedy cop series called Hammer or something like that. In more recent times you can watch lots of Asian cinema as most if it is shown on film 4 in a post midnight slot... But years ago that used to be shown on Channel 4.
Thinking back to 1998 I watched a terrific repeat of a sci-fi show called Space above and Beyond. I truly welcomed another chance to see that show and would love to see it again on the BBC, since it hasn't been shown since.
I do agree that the majority of channels and its programming is complete rubbish but with more channels to have more choice and I think it's great to have some channels repeating older programs that have niche audiences, giving everyone a chance to see something they like.
just a suggestion but why don't you contact the BBC and find out what the music was, then you can always try and purchase a CD.
