I agree that local TV is a waste of time.

Thanks for the info everyone, maybe I was getting mixed up with VM having to provide them with the most prominent slot (which was 159), I didn't realise that they had to pay commercial rates to VM.

As these channels now largely exist to get money out of the BBC and aren't bothered about ratings (clearly shown with the schedule that MB kindly provided), it wouldn't surprise me if they were taken off VM and Sky as the contracts expire.
