Is it Monday or is it Wednesday?

According to a UTV trailer before "Building the Dream", Bad Girls and Shane are on "tonight".


Both programmes have moved and are now on Mondays for this week and next week at least. Not seen listings for the weeks after yet.

For once, UTV giving correct information, someone go and let fireworks off!

On the program I want that house can UTV not remove the ITV promos which scroll the screen near the end of the program and then the voice over at the end?

All that c**p on screen is on the network feed so thats why at the end UTV sometimes have that slide telling folk its UTV live next. UTV could do what they did when You've been framed was on at 5. When the programme finished, UTV would opted out of the credits and stick up some clean credits, but the credits were copyright dated as 2001 and not 2004 and UTV being slow as ever always were about 2 seconds late before opting out of the network dirty credits.

Surely its UTV right to get clean credits from ITV, or it now a case with the NEW ITV company trying to whip UTV into place.

Any one notice on last nights UTV live at Six, Mike handed over to Logie to do the sports, but instead he should have gone to the ITV news trailer (which isnt a live one is it?) and the trailer was playing in background, but for a change there was an apoligy.
On tuesday night when the ITV news went to do the regional round up UTV seemed to forget it was there air time.
Is this another UTV / ITV dissagreement will we see UTV having no itv news links soon?
