I cannot believe that Dallas has been taken off air just like that - no notice, nothing! I have 3 kids under the age of 2.5 years so watching TV during the day is impossible, so I recently bought Sky+ just to record Dallas. First I thought its been taken off due to half term holidays, but having checked the TV listings on UKtvGold I can only find a repeat on Sunday 21st Oct @ 7.15am. How can UKGold just remove this without any warning then no reply at all as to when it will be back. DISGUSTING !!!! Develish Develish Develish Develish Develish Develish Develish

Bring back Dallas! Stop treating your viewer with such distain. We all want it back ,.....and from where it left off....not like last time when you took it off air for a couple of weeks claiming a summer break and then resumed with lots of back episodes. WE WANT IT BACK - it is the best thing on TV!

I've been watching Dallas on UK gold for months now. This is the third time that I've sit down to watch the taped recordings on my VBox only to discover that it isn't there. I'm all excited as I was planning on watching three episodes as it's so juicy at the moment and IT'S NOT THERE.
I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT UK GOLD HAS TAKEN IT OFF AIR WITH NO WARNING. I'M LIVID. When is it going to come back. Where can I register to get notification when it will return again. I'm so mad. HELP

Eek Following on from my previous post I think we should all contact POINTS OF VIEW about Dallas disappearing mid-seasons as it's hosted by Terry Wogan and the more of us who contact the programme, the better chance there will be of a BBC channel rebroadcasting it all (as it was on BBC1 originally). I think this would be a very good idea as it now seems UK TV Gold are not going to continue showing it. Confused

Angry I JUST LOGGED ON TO THIS WEBSITE TO FIND OUT WHAT HAS HAPPENED TO DALLAS. IT'S RIDICULOUS THAT UKTV GOLD HAS NOT BOUGHT FURTHER EPISODES OF THIS GREAT PROGRAMME. I AM AS ADDICTED TO IT 20 ODD YEARS LATER HAS I WAS BACK THEN (MIND YOU I WAS ONLY A CHILD). NOT TO MENTION MY FATHER WHO LOVES TO RUSH HOME FROM HIS COFFEE MORNINGS AT 11.00 AM JUST IN TIME TO SEE HIS ALL TIME FAVOURITE BAD BOY JR. IT WAS THE BEST DRAMA / SOAP ON TV BACK THEN AND STILL IS TODAY. BRING IT BACK INSTEAD OF TORMENTING US WITH ALL THIS REALITY RUBBISH ON TV NOW. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE BRING IT BACK AND SOON.

Angry I am just insensed that Dallas has been axed, why bother to show it in the first place, only to get an audience hooked and then pull the plug. I have been a huge Dallas fan for years and have actually been on the ranch used in the filming. They manage to re-run to death Dr Who.

UK Tv cant think much of their audience. If anyone out there know what string to pull to help get it back you have my support..!! That cuppa at 5pm just itsnt the same..!!

I'm glad I'm not the only one who's been so upset by Dallas being given the bullet by TV bosses. I've been watching the re-runs with my missus every evening since they aired in April, and we've both gutted. I feel a bit like when Miss Ellie told Jock she and the DOA (Daughter of the Alamo) were behind the campaign to stop the Takapa lake development, and Jock bellowed at her " I AM TAKAPA !!". I think the only way UK Gold would listen would be if Justin Lee Collins did another of his 'Bring back Dallas' programmes. Right I'm off to the Cattleman's for a stiff bourbon.

What a stupid thing to do, just pull the program without any warning. I cannot be bothered with such rubbish planning and will not watch any more series on this chanel for the same thing to happen. It might cost a bit more but Ill buy the stuff I want to watch on DVD. You get what you pay for.

I am so so so so disappointed that Dallas is no longer on. I am fed up of the way this channel treats its viewers in such a cavalier fashion. BRING IT BACK!!!!

Hi there, newbie here. All I can say is OH MY GOODNESS!!!! I've just realised tonight that there will be no more Dallas and I'm gutted. But I have to tell you, I got a special "warmth" reading the comments posted previous to this one. How can a legend of a programme like Dallas be dropped without warning?? A few series then zilch. This is not just cruel, it's positive TORTURE!!! All you guys posting..a big clap on the back for you!! And UK Gold....all I can say is SHAME ON YOU AND GET IT SORTED!!!!!!!!! Roll Eyes Confused Confused

I remember the later years of Dallas in my childhood and I was hooked even at a young age!
I was excited that UKTV Gold would be showing Dallas from the start this has giving me the chance to see how the great soap started, which has been really enjoyably.
I am very disappointed that Dallas has been taken off without and notice. I do feel this is unfair to the viewers, it is clear to see that Dallas is a very popular programme and the decision should be reviewed!

I AM REALLY DISAPPOINTED - NO MORE DALLAS. IT WAS THE HIGHLIGHT OF MY DAY! IF I COULD NOT WATCH IT, I TAPED IT OR WATCHED AT THE WEEKEND WHEN REPEATED. UKTV GOLD, YOU HAVE GOT IT ALL WRONG - THIS IS NO WAY TO INCREASE YOUR VIEWERS, ALL YOU ARE DOING IS DISAPPOINTING US AND MAKING PEOPLE WANT TO RETALIATE BY CANCELLING SUBSCRIPTIONS. IT WILL PUT ME OFF EVER STARTING TO WATCH ANOTHER SERIES OF ANYTHING WITH UKTV GOLD AGAIN, I FEEL LET DOWN AND CANNOT TRUST UKTV GOLD FROM NOW ON. YOUR LACK OF COMMUNICATION TO YOUR VIEWERS IS VERY UNPROFESSIONAL AND QUITE FRANKLY, A KICK IN THE TEETH TO LOYAL VIEWERS.

Frown So disappointed that Dallas has finished. I can understand that if UKTV Gold don't have anymore episodes they can't show them, but why not communicate to the fans. It's such bad customer service. I have noticed however, that Dallas seems to be starting from the beginning again in November... I'm sure I read in an earlier message posted by UKTV Gold (that has now vanished) that they had bought the entire 14 series.
Besides, how many episodes of My Family do they think people will watch in one day?

Come on UKTV Gold - don't disappoint us...

What a big bunch of idiots the managment of UKTV Gold are! If they had any foresight they would have seen that only partially buying the Dallas series would cause such an outcry from their customers!!!.

UK Gold you seriously need to get yourselves sorted. Upsetting your customers like this is doing more harm to your reputation than good.
The name UK Gold says it all its meant to show programmes that are like gold, classics. This is exactly what Dallas is!
Get it sorted cause.......
WE WANT DALLAS!!
WE WANT DALLAS!!
