They'll only replace it with more rubbish, DG.  :)

Fantastic news.  Let's hope the next thing to go is Channel 4 itself!  :devil:

Actually, I disagree there, Dave.  C4 have produced some good TV, and at the moment, seem to be the only ones making half decent comedies.  I'm thinking The IT Crowd, The Inbetweeners, Black Books, Green Wing, and of course, Father Ted, along with some good dramas such as The Sopranos (OK, so that was bought in), Shameless, er... well I did say some.  ;)

I'm very much with Simon on this.  Channel 4 provides some of the best news and documentaries around.  Its entertainment can be a bit eclectic but I also enjoy a lot of lifestyle programmes with the likes of Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall.

I find some of the documentaries a little sensationalist (why do we need to see the insides of an elephant?), but there are some good ones too.  :)

That one passed me by, Simon :laugh: , but where else would you find programmes being made by the likes of John Pilger?
