Are the powers that be, you know who you are, really listening to us or are you just having a laugh at our expense about all these complaints.

I'm sick of you not taking heed of all these complaints. An idiot can plainly see that we, your suppose viewers, are not happy anymore with this rubbish on your channel.

Are you all making so much money that you just don't care anymore?
Well, you know the saying, be careful who you treat on the way up etc, etc.

Your channel used to be great, it was one of the reasons I got Sky in the first place but because of some of the other useless channels I have now got rid of them and reduced my tariff, so if things do not improve I shall have no hesitation in getting rid of the UKTV channels in the future.

I know things can't happen overnight but a response from you would be nice and to know you are taking note and that you are listening to some of the ideas that your veiwers want to watch.

I know we the viewers do complain and you can't please everyone but you don't seem to pleasing anyone at the moment, me included.

MUST YOU KEEP ADVERTISING THIS PROGRAMME ON YOUR CHANNELS - IT'S DRIVING ME MAD. I FOR ONE WILL NOT BE WATCHING IT, AS IT IS NOT A UKTV GOLD PROGRAMME (SURPRISE, SURPRISE) I THINK WE ALL KNOW WHEN IT'S GOING TO START AND SOME MIGHT EVEN ENJOY IT, BUT STOP SO MANY ADVERTS FOR IT.

Many many thanks DRAMA for showing D & P every night - fantastic, and for showing the earlier ones, they were definately better, but would it be possible for you to start showing them from the beginning, I would be forever in your debt

Whatever are you doing showing extreme makeover on UKTVGOLD. Have you finally lost the plot completely now - don't you show enough of that rubbish on your other UKTV channels or is GOLD finally scraping the dregs of whats left in their barrel.

Bring back Wieldy - David Royle where are you, the three of you made a great team

You're someone after my own heart. D & P are the best ever and it's brilliant that it's being shown every night on DRAMA at the mo. I even video the shows in case it gets taken off (how sad am I, but I don't care)
I think the early ones are better, especially with David Royle, such a shame he left. Maybe we should campaign to bring him back.

Good idea, I already have stopped watching it. And as for UKGOLD2 it means we get double the repaeats and double the ****

I think we should keep sending in the exact same messages over and over again - see how UKTV Gold like it, keep watching BORING OLD REPEATS all the time like we have to.

BRING BACK MORE OF THE OLDER AUSSIE SOAPS FROM THE 70'S & 80'S. YOU USED TO SHOW THEM - WHAT HAPPENED

I totally agree. I know there are a lot of Olny Fools fans out there, me included at one one time, but not anymore, I think the programme has been done to death now, eg: all day most weekends.

We all need a bit of variety in our lives cause as with Gold we get BORED.
There have been lots and lots of complaints about this channel on this message board, so I strongly suggest that the powers that be start taking notice. It doesn't take a genius to work out that us, your viewers are not happy anymore with UKTV Gold.

I agree, I think they 're great too, especially when they're running down the hill mooing. I must be pretty sad, but I don't care.

I didn't see the programme but if your looking for particular books you can log on to bookfinder.com and type Arnheim in the title section, that might give you some idea. You don't have to have the authors name. Hope this helps

Thanks for keep showing Dalziel & Pascoe, I absolutley love the show, and the week long session of episodes you did was a brill idea. I wouldn't complain if you did it again. Warren Clarke has got to be the best actor on telly, with Colin Buchanan as his sidekick they make a great team.

Totally agree. He is a very underestimated actor who can play serious or comedy roles. Dalziel & Pascoe is my favourite programme on telly at the mo. Long may it reign.

For The Term of His Natural Life starring Colin Friels was an excellent series, or even The Thorn Birds.

Absolutley, the show is utter rubbish. I love quiz shows, particularly about tv and films, but this one, I wouldn't even put it in the same catagory as the likes of Telly Addicts.

I watched the first show and that was it, I turn it off every time it comes on the telly.

It looks as though the shows format was thought of in five minutes and just thrown together.

What a great shame.

Forget Sindy or Barbie. I had Pippa dolls, does anyone else remember them. I'm in my 40's now but still have them, 14 to be exact, with all the clothes and their sports car and pony.

None of my mates had them and I've never seen or heard of them since so it would be nice to know i'm not alone.

Brilliant, absolutley love it, keep the show going

Please, please, please, please, please can we have some of the old Aussie soaps back on. Sons & Daughters was a great one, The Flying Doctors, The Young Doctors, The Sullivans and of course Prisoner Cell Block H.
It would make a bit of a change from our programs now and even if they were on late at night I wouldn't mind.

In 3rd place they showed The Vicar od Dibley - The Wedding, 2nd was Open All Hours - don't know which one cause I don't like it so didn't watch it - sorry, 1st was Ony Fools and Horses - The Frogs Legacy

Brilliant list of programs, I've just come back from Oz and there still showing Sons and Daughters over there, loved every minute of it. The last 2 on your list are my favs and does anyone remember Shortland Street?

I don't watch it much either now. It was one of the main reasons I had sky in the first place but it's not worth the money we pay for it. UKTV Drama has gone the same and there are way too many UKTV lifestyle channels regarding health, home and gardens.

Not only Prisoner Cell Block H but also the likes of Sons and Daughters, The Flying Doctors, to name but a few. To me they were good old Aussie soaps

I totally agree with everything you say. Everytime you turn on either UKTV Gold or Drama it's the same boring old programs. It's about time we had more of a variety. I don't mind watching whats on there OCCASIONALLY but could we please have more of a choice.
