I think it will cause ntl a LOT of damage if More4 does not launch tomorrow. They have ahd several weeks notice plus there is space which is left by Express Shopping Channel closing down.

I am in the position where I can watch it on Freeview but it would be really bad for ntl if they do not launch More4 by 8pm tomorrow night.

I was hoping that the whole caboodle(the missing 11 + More 4) were being help up to launch together tomorrow but then again I thought Scotland would qualify for the World Cup!

Most of the other new channels have mentioned their channel number either on their website or on-air in the case of Quiz Call, so I wouldn't hold out much hope of More 4 Launching on time (on ntl) because it's mentioned on Channel 4's website.

There is hope however that it can use the space left by the Express Shopping channel like I mentioned in an earlier post and as suggested by Rillington, so fingers crossed.

Where do I place my bet? I'll stick £50 on it not being here tomorrow. :(

I'd love it to be here, I want to see the first More4 News and the thing that's on at 9pm. Can't see it happening, sadly. :td:

Maybe not £50 but I'll stick a rep on it being here for launch. :D

There's a defunct "Express shopping" channel they can dump, if they're that short of capacity - though maybe the static screen gets a lower bandwidth anyway.

I believe that More4 should have launched to all digital customers this morning, although the programming doesn't start until 8pm tonight. More4 +1 doesn't actually run any programming until next Monday, I've no idea why.

Sorry about the lack of info on it last week, there was still a lot of work going on to make sure it could launch.

I'll see what I can tell you about the other channels - hopefully should be an announcement today about the other channels coming soon (sorry to use that phrase...!)
