It'll break up the endless costume dramas... I'm sure the production companies have a job lot of costumes and are getting the last ounce out of them.... Downton, Selfridge, Sherlock +++++

One of the many reasons, along with all the other tosh, we are NOT having SKY when we move south!!

Edit: Just realised, I didn't mean TG, just all the other c**p on SKY

Probably, but everything seems to have re-re-reruns on most other channels too!

Most of the stuff we watch can be seen on Freeview etc. anyhow so no need to line SKY's pocket. Just going to get a Humax or similar to record stuff.

Touring Car Legends

Touring Cars Legends, Episode 1

Wednesday 5th February on ITV4 from 8:00pm to 9:00pm

A fascinating three-part series about the history of the British Touring Cars Championship from its birth in 1957 up to the present day.
The first programme looks at the very early years in the late 1950s when competitors would actually drive their cars to the meetings dressed in their Sunday best.
The very first meeting was at Brands Hatch on Boxing Day 1957 and it was then known as the British Saloon Car Championship.

For anyone interested in hill climbing, the Top Gear on Sunday was filmed at Shelsley Walsh and looks to be very interesting.....
