Yes, I've never previously watched Babylon 5, as I missed the opportunity to see the first series, but can now. The range of programs available on VOD is very good, in my opinion. I know some people don't like the inclusion of some quite old stuff, but in this case it has done me a favour :)

B5, one of the best Sci-fi shows. I'm looking forward to The Lost Tales, new B5 after all this time. :D

What I never understand is why Deep Space 9 has never been repeated.

That is weird, on mine it is 'TV Hits' & it is listed under 'Drama', but not under 'A-Z'. - do you have the new EPG, dilli? (mine is still the old one)

I have the new epg on both my boxes... And so does Bill I think.

I'm hoping they put Crusade on too - never seen that.

I have the old epg, and it's under A-Z of teleport TV. (Probably under drama too, but a-z is quicker).

I never caught the first series, so didn't bother. Now I'll be able to watch it at my leisure :)

I caught a few episodes of 'Crusade' and it wasn't too bad - although I found the extra 'character development' of Peter Woodward as 'Galen' a bit irritating :)

Younger brother is currently rewatching B5 using the on demand, even though he's got the DVD's :D (it's easier than getting the disks out).

I'm really liking the selection of on demand stuff, and hope they add Crusade soon (although that wasn't a patch on the main series, largely I think because it got cut very short).

I got weird question what happens to reminders if your watching vod or virgin central. As I have set mine to not warn me and just turn to the program.

do they get ignored or automatically stop your watching vod and then go to the channel.

Stargate and Star Trek would take for ever to watch if you put them all on one after the other.
;)
That would be nice. So come on Virgin, stick them on VOD.

You have got to be joking!!! Along with Voyager those two have got to be the WORST Star Trek series ever produced, even Gene Roddenberry hated them!

Let's have some Thunderbirds, Captain Scarlet, UFO, Dr Who (not the rubbish 'new' series they show now), Chorlton and the Wheelies, Pipkins, Rainbow, in fact anything other than DS9 and Voyager :mad:

Each to their own, I actually liked DS9.

Sadly Gene is no longer with us so we can't ask if he likes Pipkins and Rainbow and as he died 2 years before DS9 was aired I doubt he had much time to form an opinion.

Just looked The Lost Tales up on wiki, and found out that Richard Biggs died!
I had no idea.
I knew about Andreas and that was a shock at the time.
Both deaths are a great loss to Sci-Fi.

I did eactly the same after reading this thread. I was gutted. I didn't know about either.
I collected all the episodes on video at the time but I'm going to re-run them through VOD. I hope they put them all up!

Don't forget Tim Choate who played Zathras, he died in a car accident.
Also Johnny Seka who played Dr Benjamin Kyle, he died aged 72.
