Has anyone got anymore news on the UK TV relaunch?
It seems to have gone quiet for some time now

Don't worry - it will happen! The last I heard, it had been postponed until at least the end of April / early May, so I think we'll see the new look a little while after Easter has finished.

Cheers,

As long as its not between this Sunday and Thursday the 19th as thats when I cancel my ONDigital subscription and subscribe to Sky!

Im really looking forward to the relauch though I still like the current presentation on UK GOld but UK Style/Horizons has to go as its terrible.

Also Asa do you know or could you guess what time they will relaunch as UKGold (I think) is the only 24 hour UK TV channel so when will they start? 6am? or something like that?. The reason why I ask is that I would love to stay up all night if it meant I could catch the first glimse of the new presentation

You could all take 'shifts' I would agree to this, but I don't have SKY or anything of that sort, sorry!

It would be better though if we could get an exact date as tempting as though it seems staying up every night in anticipation does have its side effects!

Woh! That's going a bit far isn't it

I need my sleep! Anyway, it'll almost certainly be 6am across the network. But as for a date...i'll let you know when I know!

Also I do hope UK Gold get a website to go with the relaunch and is there anyone you can contact to ask about when this will all happen?, I sent a few emails to different people at flextech regarding UK TV but I still havent got a relpy and dont think I will ever get one!

That isn't to say that ITV is relaunching of course.

I guess getting up really early is the price you pay to catch these proper television channel relauches

I noticed on UK Gold at the moment the bumper has been replaced with the easter chick one, has anyone else seen this?
