Just a few quick questions which i hope you can answer, i know alibi will be just crime drama so will GOLD just be a pure 100% comedy channel? If it will be what will happen to classic drama programes like all creatures great and small that are shown on uktv drama at the moment and dont fit the watch channel?

I would have thought Holby City would go on the new watch channel for modern stuff, at a guess modern would mean programes from the last 8-10 years? My point was there are programes like all creatures great and small that are classic dramas but do not come under either crime or comedy so where will they go?

david r is the only person who replies. Can i ask why the mods dont reply to messages as they must read them? Also if i were to ignore customer requests and comments good or bad at work, i'd be in big trouble! Maybe an idea would be to just mark our messages as read its slightly better than nothing.

the drama channel is closing to become the new alibi channel for crime dramas only, gold is going 2 become comedy and the new watch channel is modern stuff, so what about classic NON CRIME dramas?

We are getting 3 new channels called Gold, Watch and Alibi - comedy, recent repeats and crime drama. I very much doubt we will get old episodes of the bill, in fact i bet you anything they will start off again wherever they normaly go back to! I`m dissapointed that gold is just going to be comedy, i and many others hoped it would go back to being general enterainment of a classic nature as well as comedy. I have no problem with the idea of the watch channel just hate the name!

Hi all this is my 1st posting, just found out the new channel names for uktv gold, uktv gold+1 and uktv drama they are gold, watch and alibi. Anyone have any thoughts? Gold is going to be comedy, watch is modern stuff and alibi is going to be crime drama. I`m disapointed that gold is just going to be comedy and not a mix of comedy and classic drama, what is going to happen to classic drama that is not crime related?
