It was all very unnecessary and I do totally blame VM. They were the ones who created the situation by suddenly wanting to pay 50% less. Might try that with my next VM bill.....

You mean you didn't see it when it came out 40 years ago, Mr K?

That's the catch up. However, aren't we getting loads of box sets if the blurb is to be believed?

It was very close to happening between Sky and Discovery. It happens in the States from time to time. It's no good slagging VM off for this problem. They considered UKTV to be poor value. So what were they supposed to do when UKTV dug their heels in?
Yes, it is a shame for the viewers who missed the programmes they wanted to see for a few short weeks, but the alternative was to be ripped off. And guess who would end up paying?
