'Dave' on Sky

Did 'Dave' change its name again? it used to be called UKTV Gold, but now it's something else. I remember looking at the EPG last night and seeing some new channels listed. One of them seemed to have the same programs on as Dave did. There was another channel called 'Alibi' too, I think.

I thought Dave and UKTV Gold were seperate stations. Some stations were renamed this week, alibi is one and UKTV Gold is now just gold.

Dave is still there.

Ailibi is a renamed channel alright.

Dave was originally UKTV gold 2, they changed it because it was an unweildly name, it was a success so now they are rebranding their other channels similarly.

You sure? Last night I couldn't see Dave there. I can't check now though because I'm in college. What was Alibi called previously?

Alibi was UKTv Drama.

They've also re-ordered the time shift channels with the plus 1's being down the epg rather than immediately after the main version of the channel.

Dave is definately still there.

Fair enough. I'll have a look when I get home. Better get my white ass to my lecture.

which channel is watch a rebrand of then?

It's a sort of new version of UKTV Gold with Richard and Judy basically. G.O.L.D is also a rebrand with alot more vintage stuff and, CRITICALLY, without Richard and Judy!!!!

uktv gold is now called Watch and is on the same epg on sky . (109) It is a relaunched channel.

what was uktv gold +1 at 110 is now G.O.L.D. (Go on Laugh Daily)

So effectively there is now one more channel than there was before.

As mentioned in other posts the +1 of these channels is further down the epg.

Dave is not affected.
