Saturday Shows

Post by Tom S »

I know that us forumites cannot do much about the scheduling of Channel 4, but, personally, I rather enjoyed watching live today on a grim Saturday afternoon. I should imagine more folks would be able to watch the show, too, had they been aware of it. So, the question I would like to pose, is, " Should Saturday Shows be brought back" if it was down to your view.

Now that I have a full-time job I'd have to say that a Saturday slot would be quite convenient! They managed six-day-a-week broadcasts for several months in Series 54 (early 2006) -- does anyone know why the Saturday show was put there?
I'm not dead yet. In a rut right now because of stress from work. I'll be back later in S89. I also plan to bring back the Mastergram - if I can find a way to run a timer or clock through pure MediaWiki without having to upload to Vimeo every time.

According to the wiki, it was down to the fact that 54 was having high viewing figures- maybe it might do the show some good!
