FYI There are three programmes going out tomorrow morning on Channel 4, during 4 Learning, called What's This Channel 4?, and from what I have checked in the Daily Mail Weekend, the first episode is looking at the behind the scenes of the first day of Channel 4 and the other two focus on some of the behind the scenes stuff too, it looks quite interesting, there maybe some good clips too. I can't believe that this is a schools programme too, it's probably the only thing that Channel 4 has done for it's 21st.

It's on tomorrow morning from 9.30am on Channel 4 and S4C, I will be setting my VCR for it.

It has been on before. Something which I found interesting is the communication they show between RI:SE and Channel 4 whilst it is on air.

Its a really interesting programme. Especially for people doing media or interested in it.
Unfortunately, they advertise a website at the end of the programme that doesn't actually exist. (www.channel4.com/wtc4) Strange.

The program goes out every Fri at 10:35am.

Its been on for the past 2 weeks and on this fri coming its Ep3.

Ep1 is the best one. You see the announcer’s rehearsing. It’s that Woman with a funny name. She is the narrator of the show too.

VUYISWA NGQOBOUGWANA .

What do they call her at Channel 4, then? It's a bit of a mouthful, especially if you've had a few drinks!

It was a very interesting set of programmes, and I agree the first one was the best.

Looks like they've got rid of the Big Breakfast gnome from outside C4 HQ as well!

I don’t know. At a guess I'm sure the overweight men in suits shout: “Oi, darlin! Read that will you!!”

They call her Vuyiswa - it's only two syllables! Smile

They chose a great day to cover Channel Four News - with the Campbell studio interview.
