That won't happen which is why I'm not worried that we won't get this for a couple of years. What WILL happen IMO is that (for e.g) the new series of Downton will be broadcast there first, say 2 or 3 weeks b4 it's on ITV.

ITV know they can't risk putting known drama, only on their new channel. Their investors and advertisers simply wouldn't let them.
