General   (General discussion, talk about anything.)

There are over 100 channels on Freeview and many more on Sky/VM. If you are stuck in and have nothing else to do you will find out that a lot of programmes are repeated either on the same day or the following day. Sometimes there is a block viewing of a programme which can cover 5or 6 hrs. Also there are more and more American programmes being shown or sci fi including Star Trek from the 70's. plus all the spin off's from the Star Trek franchise . I at times wonder weither the programmers have run out of ideas There used to be 5 channels operating from 6-00am to midnight now its 24/7 on 100's of channels
