Tragic.

Hmm. I wonder that Uncle Carlton has cooked up for us in the New Year then. No pun intended http://web.ukonline.co.uk/tv.home/forum/emoticons/biggrin.gif

I'm preparing the noose.

Taste CFN was something I never really watched - what was on it?

PRESS STATEMENT FROM CFN VIA REAL VERDICT

To all our loyal viewers, we have to bring the unfortunate news that our television channel Taste CFN will be closing down permanently on the 30 November 2001. The closure is a result of recent UK economic conditions that are beyond the control of ourselves and of our broadcast partners MultiChoice, ntl, ITV digital and Telewest.

However, we'd like to thank all the chefs and presenters over the years who have contributed so much to the channel. Hopefully we have inspired and enlightened our audience, and above all created some fun in the kitchen. From everyone at the channel - all the best.

Economic conditions?

What rubbish! The problem was there were no loyal viewers !!

This isn't as sad as the news that the Toys R Us ad lost it's old winding road graphics-but SETV has the old ad on his site now!! Yay!!

lol! I could have predicted you would say that!

Maybe - just maybe - if that giraffe got together with Carlton.....

I'll be quite sad if/when Wellbeing closes.
Although it's presentation style has a lot to be desired, it provides damned good information which you can't find anywhere else.

As a Dad-to-be, the segments between 1200 - 1400 are a real eye opener & proving very useful

Ahhh

Swotting up, eh? I want details here and now. When due?

Just looking forward to all those nappy sacks and sleepless nights

Towards the end of March. Get those knitting needles out!
