Maybe Ideal World has took over Sewing Quarter old EPG slot?

Base on what CCXTV is set to broadcast look to me that it own by the owners of Forces TV or Sony.

I mean Forces TV broadcasts Bless this house, Men Behaving Badly (Series 1), Trippers Day and Never the Twain.

But CCXTV is also broadcasting SOME True Crime shows.

Is Forces TV now being run by Sony (Maybe set to move soon to COM5 - Sony Movies old slot)?

It's owned by Ideal World. But they may be lining it up to sell on. Since EPG positions can't be sold directly, they gradually change it and then sell it. Like with the shopping channel that eventually, via Movie Mix, became Sony Movies on Freeview.

Re: Freeview channel renumbering and hours changes
 
Yesterday +1 has appeared on COM5 and on screen information says "Back at 5am". So I think it using TJC old slot.

EPG says Yesterday +1 is broadcasting all day.

---------- Post added at 20:54 ---------- Previous post was at 20:53 ----------

Here is the up to date list of space on Freeview being unused.

-Old Hochanda slot on SDN (7pm to 7am only)
-Old TBN UK slot on COM5
-Old Sony Movies slot on COM5

All information right as of April 15th.

I saw something that implied Yaaas! is merging in some way with the company's other service Ketchup.

Hochanda is apparently extending its Freeview hours from 1st July.

Currently ends at 7pm, will change to 10pm.

That'll make the remaining space on that stream less attractive. If it gets filled it's more likely to be an "Adult" service or a +1 I'd imagine. Obvious candidates, in my opinion, are ITV4+1 and ITVBe+1 which are already on this (ITV-owned) multiplex as placeholders.
