Re: the next new channels to come on ntl???
 

Someone asked me about Channel M. They have had further technical issues and unfortunately we don't now have a date when they will be ready to launch. It's expected to be another few weeks.

Re: the next new channels to come on ntl???
 

channel M?

Re: the next new channels to come on ntl???
 

It's a local channel in Manchester only.

Re: the next new channels to come on ntl???
 

are we ever going to get any new channels (apart from the setanta tv channels coming this summer)???

i guess customers outside of manchester will not receive channel M?

and why is channel ntl so utterly useless - i don't ruddy care about ntl broadband sky channel 698!!! :angry:

thanks :)

Re: the next new channels to come on ntl???
 

Channel ntl: is just been kept warm until the next update on the Bromley platform isn't it ;) I hope Bromley customers will get the remote control dressed as an engineer with a utility belt that Langley customers got. In fact the remote should host everything on Channel ntl:, and it could be voiced by Simone Bien. Where is Simone, I havn't seen her in ages!

Re: the next new channels to come on ntl???
 

Can anyone confirm that there is going to be a BS channel fronted by robert boy? :D

Re: the next new channels to come on ntl???
 

Now now, behave ...... :rofl:

Re: the next new channels to come on ntl???
 

No need for that m8. :)

Re: the next new channels to come on ntl???
 

Many apologies, I thought it was quite funny and appropriate at the time. :D

Re: the next new channels to come on ntl???
 

it was funny but we will see who has,the last laught

Re: the next new channels to come on ntl???
 

A bit of deja-vu here, didn't you post exactly the same thing a couple of pages back? :D

Well we waited we saw nothing happened so we moved on. So you want us to wait again? :D

Re: the next new channels to come on ntl???
 

How come robert is the only person ive ever saw with a Red Square

Re: the next new channels to come on ntl???
 

Probably been red repped too much.

Re: the next new channels to come on ntl???
 

"Robert Boy has a little shameless bahaviour in the past"

Re: the next new channels to come on ntl???
 

Just a little? :Yikes:

Re: the next new channels to come on ntl???
 

From a govt intranet service:

Quote:
In order to deliver the Government’s commitment to make job search and the ability to apply for a job accessible by interactive digital TV by 2005-06 a system has been developed that will enable jobseekers to access Job Bank vacancies via their interactive digital TV (iDTV).

A pilot service started in June, running until March 2005 using vacancies from the London area. This pilot will give all NTL/Telewest/Sky subscribers access to vacancies notified within a 15 mile radius of Central London.

Go live will be staggered over a period of a few weeks, due to individual digital TV providers updating their service. The dates are planned as follows:

21 June 2004 – Telewest service went live;
Exact date not yet confirmed for NTL service to go live; and
15 July 2004 – SKY service will go live.

Job Channel is a means of broadening the potential audience who will be able to access Jobcentre Plus vacancies. Jobseekers who may not use the Jobcentre Plus services provided in offices will be able to look at vacancies in the comfort of their own home at a time that suits them.

This is a new and exciting media for reaching jobseekers and we hope that a successful pilot using London vacancies will lead us to extend this service to other parts of the country.



Better than a shopping channel i suppose! https://www.cableforum.co.uk/images/local/2006/02/3.gif

Re: the next new channels to come on ntl???
 

Hmm no surprise then with a date not confirmed for NTL. :D

Re: the next new channels to come on ntl???
 

'Cos all of his sources live in the Kremlin ;)

Re: the next new channels to come on ntl???
 

lol, hilarious

Re: the next new channels to come on ntl???
 

ntl don't even have basic interactive in london - let alone enhanced stuff like this.
that date will probably be after the actual full release of the service!
:)

Re: the next new channels to come on ntl???
 

NTL already carries the Job Channel on its interactive service and unlike Sky it doesn't cost local rate +1p per minute to access information. The only thing enhanced with Sky's version is your phone bill.

Re: the next new channels to come on ntl???
 

Err, that doesn't appear to be anything to do with the post you quoted..

bigitup_j was pointing out that NTL offer NO interactive services in London (more specifically on what was previously the videotron network).

Re: the next new channels to come on ntl???
 

Er, it does. bigitup_j said ntl don't even have basic interactive in London - let alone enhanced stuff like this

There is nothing particularly enhanced about the service, nothing that ntl doesn't already carry on it's er, basic Job channel interactive service today.

ntl (or Sky customers for a price) can already search and locate vacancies across the UK, not just in their local area. The vacancies in London are not just targeted at those currently living in London, hence the whole idea of showing them UK wide on digital TV.

Re: the next new channels to come on ntl???
 

It's now on Channel 26 but the picture isn't too hot, hope it improves.

At least they've dropped Sky News (if the ntl epg is correct) so things can only get better. The early evening local news bulletin looks promising, and finally Euronews too, even if it is only for 6 hours.

Re: the next new channels to come on ntl???
 

I'm in Manchester and getting no Channel M.

Don't tell me it's just on Langley!

Re: the next new channels to come on ntl???
 

Sam B - will Channel M be a nationwide launch, or just in the Manchester region?

Cheers,
Browneggsandham :)

Re: the next new channels to come on ntl???
 

It's gone, must've just been testing overnight. But it was on Ch 26 in the Manchester area.

Re: the next new channels to come on ntl???
 

Channel M will only be in Manchester, and it's just testing right now. I don't think a launch date has been confirmed yet.
Sam

Re: the next new channels to come on ntl???
 

I wish the Local Channel would just be completely replaced by the Community Channel, everything bar the Community Channel is pathetic with awful sound. Plus why on earth is there a section each night called "Afghan TV" which is in Afghanistani, theres nothing local about that.

Re: the next new channels to come on ntl???
 

Setanta Sports in now on 423, Celtic is on 424 and Rangers is on 425.

Re: the next new channels to come on ntl???

Re: the next new channels to come on ntl???
 

£15.99 for all three

Re: the next new channels to come on ntl???

Re: the next new channels to come on ntl???
 

Finally arrived. It'll be a welcome addition for many, as reception is virtually non-existent in many parts of the city.

Re: the next new channels to come on ntl???
 

Is it on digital now? If so what EPG number does it use?

Re: the next new channels to come on ntl???
 

Re: the next new channels to come on ntl???

Re: the next new channels to come on ntl???

Re: the next new channels to come on ntl???
 

Is he Russian? :D

Re: the next new channels to come on ntl???
 

lol, the local channel and vctv/Bctv are a joke.. All you see are black guys with dreadlocks and the BLing deciding why its not right to mug old lady's and why there being persecuted etc etc...


NTL need to ditch these annoying channels and put something good on.
