Drama gets much higher ratings than GOLD.
UKTV aren't going to want to merge channels when they get significantly more combined ratings keeping them separate. And they are more likely to make something FTA first, if it isn't already, as that usually leads to a sizable ratings bump.

I have seen Comedy shows on GOLD (UKTV's Comedy channel) and Yesterday and Drama.
The Bill on Drama and W (and not Ailbi?)

Yesterday started showing other genres so that it could be in General Entertainment section rather than Factual, and therefore in a more prominent EPG slot.
