*What a Let Down*

Why bother with the change of channel name, etc. after all the hype we are still getting the same old rubbish.

I repeat...*What a Let Down*.

I presume that this is a half-cocked attempt to segment the demographics of the channels to beef up advertising. So crime on the new channel, comedy on G.O.L.D, etc. Personally we've got DAVE for witty banter ... why can't they just leave Gold as it was. And bring back the +1 instead of mucking about adding ever more channels.

REALLY BAD MOVE. I won't be watching this.

I couldn't agree more. They don't even give advanced warnings of changes. I like Neighbours in the morning. Sad i know but at least it isn't as depressing as the breakfast news. My TV "USED" to wake me up at 6.30 to Gold+1. I now find there isn't a +1. It has always been useful in the past to catch up with things an hour later.

I don't know what planet the programmers are on these days. The other day - when there was a +1 we had neighbours episode 1 followed by neighbours episode 2 followed again by neighbours episode 1 !!!! Hello what did they have for their breakfast.

Fire the programmers, fire the bankers and lets all live on planet GaGa in our own little world

argh!!!!!!!!! whose stupid idea was this G.O.L.D business, like witty said if its not broke why fix it??!!
where has eastenders gone please???!!
this new website is so useful theres not even one mention of why 'enders has been taken off or if its coming back. where was the warning? would i have really continued to watch a show i knew was going to be removed?
i for one hate it, uktv are trying to be too big for their boots with all these apparently amazing channels, just stick to what you know best which was entertaining people, clearly not what your doing now.
bad move! Angry
