Don't get me started on her - she's even infiltrated Grange Hill. That might be to do with the fact her partner is none other than Sean Marley, MD of Mersey TV...

Just noticed that Quiz TV (Quiz.tv) has ceased broadcasting on the NTL platform.

Does anyone know what has happened to the channel?

It ceased altogether. Wasn't doing well.

There is a bit on ukgameshows.com about it in this week's Weaver's Week column.

Basically they've left the UK market blaming concerns about changes to regulations (i.e. it'll be harder for them to rip us off!)

Matt Brown and Middlemissmuffet are on The Mint tonight talking about Chav Island.

Oh.. pur-lease! Another biggest ITV embarrassment besides the quiz conathon. Mad

It's a start...every dead Quiz TV channel is a step closer to wiping out the ulitmate UK TV evil.

Hopefully regulations that will put most of them out of buisness. Especially that one on the EMAP channels, which is even more dodgy than the others, coming straight from Bulgaria from a company that makes "specialist" videos and presenters whose first language clearly isn't English. Not sure why EMAP would want to show something like this, remove several hours of music from the schedules to show this, or to run the exact same thing across all 7 channels.

You aren't actually watching it, are you? I only know who runs it because I've read it, and I know what it looks like after coming across it a few times. I certinally wouldn't sit and watch it- it's shocking!

Laughing It was either that or Brian Dowling and to be honest I had a great laugh at Emap's offering, albeit for the wrong reasons. Wink

EDIT: And no, I'm not still watching it. I lasted around 3 seconds - gave me a laugh though
