our local channel is quite good, the content is locally produced as a joint venture between a local studio & the media studies courses at the local college.

So we get fairly relevant historical/local interest/current affairs programs, documentaries about local industry, as well as 'home grown' drama, fashion, music etc.

that's on analogue - I'm not sure if it is the same on digital ???

The Horror channels website in their FAQ says:

'The Horror Channel is looking at other broadcasting platforms to help reach an even wider audience. We hope to extend the channel to cable and are currently negotiating with NTL and Telewest with the aim of broadcasting there from March 05'

So fingers crossed

Actually The Local channel caters for all sorts of different cultures, thursdays and fridays my mum who is from Cyprus gets to watch some greek television albeit for a few hours but she enjoys it greatly and this alone is stopping her from going to Sky
