I'm wondering if "David R" is not a real person but a pseudonym used by random lowly employees who get the unwanted job of reading these posts dumped on them.

Perhaps if the job were to be given to somebody with a bit of seniority and pride in his/her job it wouldn't be carried out in such an inefficient manner.

Ouch! Somebody is on my hit list. Develish

I'd love to see a continuation of Holby City but there doesn't seem to be a place for it in the new lineup. Frown

Is it correct that UK TVGold is splitting into three channels - Comedy, Crime and recent repeats, I forget the name?

If so, when will this be happening?

And, if so, is there a chance we may get to see the early episodes of The Bill? ... please Smile

You speak about The Bill but this thread is about Casualty! Please can we have some other era than Bex being raped repeatedly.

Please tell me I've read it wrong and that you are NOT moving Casualty to 8am and are NOT rewinding to shortly before Bex getting raped AGAIN! That poor girl has been raped into the ground!

Please consider rewinding right back to the early episodes that we haven't seen for many years. THAT is what I think of as "GOLD" TV.

I'm wondering if they have any of the later episodes. It would be nice to be told so we can either keep on hoping or forget about Holby City.

I see you have brought back Casualty on May 6th [thank you] so PLEASE also bring back Holby City from where it stopped.

Also, it makes the channel look stupid and inefficient when there is an announcement/preview about an upcoming programme that has already been broadcast the previous day!

Please don't forget that there are MANY people who would like Holby City to resume where it stopped last time [and the time before] as it would be lovely to see eopisodes I have not seen before. I only started watching the current episodes about a year ago so I have missed loads. Please again and again bring back Holby City ... thank you.

Casualty and Holby City have gone completely now! I find it hard to understand why these have been replaced by the same reality stuff shown on so many other UKTV channels. What is the point of UKTV Gold?

On February 21st it's rewinding back to Endgame, where it resumed on January 2nd this year! I just hope in mid April when it's got back to where we are now it will keep going even if it is in the early hours of the morning. Thank goodness for recording devices!

February 15th is the end of Casualty at 10am. From the 18th it is on in the middle of the night so I guess it won't be long before it disappears altogether. The same with Holby City which only after a few weeks is again rewinding and moving to the middle of the night.

Why is Holby City rewinding to Endgame when it's only been back for less than 2 months?

wentworth20081 you may be correct in what you say. I've looked at February's listings and Holby City starts messing about again on February 15th, moving to from 11am to 4.40am then on February 21st returning to 11am but rewinding to "Endgame" [where they started from on January 4th this year!].

I so hope these listings are incorrect as they are crazy.

Does the rape of Bex sound familiar? It must be a few weeks since we saw this storyline for the umpteenth time and sure as God made little green apples this is what UKTV Gold give us [again] on January 2nd ...

Animals. Series 19, episode 27

It's Bex's first day back at work after she was raped, but a run-in with Claire sends her home early and marks the start of yet another ordeal. Tess's hopes for Mike's recovery are raised and dashed in one fell swoop, but things are looking up for Abs and Nina as they can no longer hide their feelings for each other.

Poor Bex, she must be getting a bit sore from all this raping!

Quite recently they went back to the first episode of Holby City before messing about with it. I see the New Year's listings say HC is back but for how long we will have to wait and see.

I would love The Bill to go back to early 1990s and also Casualty to go back to the early days.

Especially I would like these programmes shown in correct order, not jumping about so we don't get the full storyline before it's moved to a different one which is frustrating and confusing.

The Bill is no longer broadcast from December 10th so there's nothing left for me to watch. I've seen the sitcoms so often I almost know them word for word and the American rubbish is just that - rubbish, except Dallas but that's ended too.

I'm beginning to think the rumour is correct that UKTV Gold is vanishing on December 31st.

OK, I'm an optimist ...

PLEASE will you bring back Holby City from Eyes Wide Open. Series 5, episode 41 where it stopped after broadcasting for just one week recently and keep broadcasting it until it catches up with the present series.

PLEASE will you broadcast Casualty from Season 4, episode 41, Chain Reaction which is where UKTV Drama stopped when they went back to the very first episode a couple of years ago.

PLEASE broadcast The Bill from early 1990s IN ORDER consecutively until it catches up with present episodes.

And finally - PLEASE reply to viewers requests and queries so we know if there is any hope of UKTV Gold returning to being the wonderful channel it used to be many years ago.

Thank you.

Callie you think right. What I and others have a problem with is that these exact episodes were broadcast just this past summer, a few weeks ago. Why do we have to have them again so soon?

Best of all PLEASE go back to the 1990s and show ALL the episodes IN ORDER ... PLEASE ... THANK YOU.

I heard that UKTV Gold is closing down at the end of this year is this why the programming has been so erratic over the past few months?
