Well I would imagine TW had their hand forced by Nick to do so. A big game of contract negotiation poker ended with OK then pull the channels, expecting TW to go we don't want to do that we'll agreee your terms.

So TW behaved as they should in this instance, were not bullied and dropped the chanels. I'm sure they will be back soon. It's in TWs interests to stop customers moving to sky, its in Nicks interest as 3/5ths of is better than 0.

It's also in Nicks interest to keep the pressure up on TW to show they have a good installed customer base of Nick viewers that want it back on the air.

And a valid complaint from a 12 year old is as good as one from a 40 year old in my opinion.
