Thanks for letting us know this

Maybe the previous slates i'm thinking of were for channels that had ceased broadcasting.

Cheers, it looks to me like they are rolling it out, starting with the platform that doesn't require much negotiation.

Hmmm, it also looks like they intend to keep 5+24 (at least in the short term) and that they regard 5*+1 as more important. That is unless 5* is on 131 on Freesat and they want to keep the main channel next to the timeshift variant.
