Ive just, having following a new service message, rescaned my freeview set and now at Channel 26. Have a message, yellow background, large black writing New service coming soon, No logos at current .Just wondering if anyone else has received this, and if anyone knows of what the service will be. could this be the long awaited CNN channel or TCM by any chance?
thanks

having just checked out digitalspy, this does indeed look like the launch of "Top-Up-TV". Now, im no TV expert, but does'nt freeview only allow a certain number of channel? Where would all these new channel go?

I hope Top-up tv channels either go in 60 - 69 or The radio stations on 91 and 92 move and then top up tv gets 90 - 99.
I dont want them mixed up with all the freeview stuff.

And they're all timeshare channels. 1 channel is really half a channel.

Damn, I just saw a CAM for the ol' OD encryption on ebay. Went for like £12!

Wont they just have a massive problem with people cracking the encryption again? Another reason why OD went down.

Could this be for five's Back to reality show? It is going to be interactive but how I don't know! The 5 colours just like their 'old' colours and it says it is coming through five as well when you do a manual tune! Confused
