I was hoping that Pick +1 would start to help reduce recording clashes.

So it is, I do know that the BBC intend to eventually close Radio 4 LW due to the transmitter needing obsolete 1960's equipment. I don't think that this empty EPG listing actually means anything, as nobody knows when Radio 4 LW will cease because it all depends on how long the valves last!

The transmitter needs two of these valves, they last between 1 and 10 years and there are only 10 left in the whole world.

No attempts to manufacture similar valves will be made as this could cause a dangerous power surge to the transmitter.

It only arrived on VM earlier this year so bad forward planning

EDIT: Style Network US has just been rebranded Esquire Network, style uk should be safe if not for a rebrand
I had a quick look to see if it was already on the platform and couldn't see it, does anybody know which EPG number it is on?

Sky need to close an channel or buy one of the wee broadcasters channel numbers on Sky to launch Sky Bravo anyway,

As Sky close the SD Channel launch list years ago.[COLOR="Silver"]
Wouldn't Sky simply use the old Sky Livingit SD slots

What did Sky do with the old Bravo slots?
