    Re: Dave......Dave.....who the hell is Dave?

    The question is thus:

    Is Dave wearing a shirt?

    Edit: UKTVHistory has moved channel slots hasn't it? I'm sure I saw something about that this morning.

    Edit2: Oh christ it is called Dave. I thought it was some sort of mistype thing.

    Re: Dave......Dave.....who the hell is Dave?

    UKTV G2 -> Dave

    Looks like UKTV History has been dropped

    http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/digitalt...tb-rescan.html

    That one is about the re-scan

    Here is more about Dave:
    http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/broadcas...-freeview.html

    (What a bloody stupid name for a TV channel!)

    The problem I found with UKTV History was that the only history they ever showed was about WWII

    Re: Dave......Dave.....who the hell is Dave?

    I rescanned my freeview device this evening. UK TV history has been moved to channel 19, and is now on from 7am till 7pm only, which I a shame as I really liked the documentaries on UK TV history, and now if I want to watch them I will have to find them in the TV guide in advance and record them.

    Re: Dave......Dave.....who the hell is Dave?

    From that second article, UKTV History and 'Dave' are now time sharing.

    Dave replaces UKTV Bright Ideas.

    Re: Dave......Dave.....who the hell is Dave?

    UKTV G2 was actually pretty good. Lots of Top Gear, QI, Have I Got News For You, and things like that. I'll reserve judgment on Dave for the time being
