Nevermind, it's fixed now. Seems that the channel was carrying a subtitle track from Open All Hours.

Never mind the subtitles, whoever does UKTV programming is 'seriously wrong'!

Comedy on a Drama channel, for example.

Drop the genres & rename the channels UKTV 1,UKTV 2 etc!

That's all well and good to say that, but the whole bouquet of channels under the UKTV brand needs a serious re-think.

Many programmes are shown on more than one channel in an attempt to pad out the schedules. They should get rid of Bright Ideas, Gardens and People and go back to the original concept for the remaining channels. Retain the existing Gold, G2, History, Drama, Style & Documentary names, but keep the schedule to only what fits with the genre.
