Just not my thing...

Ellen
Moonlighting
Mercy Hospital

That kind of stuff don't float my boat at all..

The only thing that I'd possibly watch is home improvement.

:dunce: In my defense the box is quite high up the office wall and I'm not the tallest person so thats why I didn't reboot. Plus it's a Samsung and I've never had any problems with missing channels before.

Re: abc1 channel ???

abc1 launched here at Portsmouth today also. Can't say I'm impressed though. Although Mad About You is coming on soon and I liked that sitcom. And it's on the basic programme which I have. ;)

Re: abc1 channel ???

You might have to reboot your STB to get it - I did. Also, it's in the Base Pack, so everyone should get it - which is good. :)

Re: abc1 channel ???

Something nobody has mentioned yet is that channel 161 is where ABC1 is going to stay forever, as part of the Big Renumbering Plan.

It's also, coincidentely or not, the number ABC1 has on Telewest. Hopefully this is a sign that NTL are likely to adopt the other's numbering -- something I've been banging on about for years.
