I was going to say the same thing and you beat me to it. I have never watched it but I think it is a bit of a joke. If they are going to say that all the "premium" series are on other channels because they can afford to pay more then what is the point. They make a bit thing about being "ad free" like it is all anyone cares about but when it comes down to it nobody is going to watch and ad free channel if it is has average/sub par programming. Hopefully this will be an important lesson for them. Channel 4 can afford to pay more because they know they are going to get the money back from advertising revenue.
