    I'd heard this on Digital Spy but wasn't sure if it was going to be or not and when so thanks.I assume as it's going to be free on Sky and Freeview that it will also be free on NTL?

    That's great news, jmarko.
    And when you start doing the washing up, you can start watching the television. Now stop playing on MSE and do your chores!

    Good boy!

    I'm pretty sure that it's going to be free everywhere that's broadcasting it and I've not heard that NTL are not going to be carrying it, so I think it's best to assume they will!

    The news has been in lots of places but seems to have been confirmed yesterday.

    The new channel will have ad breaks but, in my mind, that's not the worst thing in the world in exchange for a free movie channel!

    So to the people at Filmfour... :T :T :T :T :T :T :T :T

    excellent... i pay for it just now, cos i think its just about worth it.... but i wonder if the WEEKLY channel will also be free.

    anyway,the ads aren't a problem if you have sky+ :)
    The word is BOUGHT, not BROUGHT.
    It's LOSE, NOT LOOSE.
    You ask for ADVICE not ADVISE.
