    I have Dave on freeview, it's a good channel and will be a great addition to Freesat.

    It showed a major Heavyweight fight in May, it also shows the odd movie, and Top gear is great

    The Fashion Channel was previously on it. In the days when the channel was a freesat exclusive.

    Vintage TV gone from Freesat, wonder is that related as well. Shame one of the other music channels couldn't have left the platform.

    Noticed it gone from freesat the other day. Was at my mums last night who has freeview, has always showed on the EPG, but always scrabbled. Had to retune the TV last night, and still scrabbled. According to the website going live sometime this month.

    10847 is a BBC TP so unlikely to be it.
    6506 sounds more like a red button feed
