The award winning shows you mention are a fraction of that channels programming. The rest of it is just second rate shows that have been shown many many times before.

There is a lot going on. Adding just any channels as a knee jerk reaction to some complaints of "lost channels", which by the way the content will be found on other Sky channels, would be bad business practice.

Could you please explain as a insider what is going on in the future for us customers.

HD will arrive that's a certainty ,don't forget Berkett said total would be around 80 in two to three years , over 3 years that's 17 a year.
