    And if new Irish channels were to launch on Sky Digital/Terrestrial Digital, what could we expect ?

    An Irish comedy channel ?

    Now that would be funny.

    All Bull Island, all the time !! :D:D:D

    Methinks directing Bond towards TV3 Praha last week has ....:D

    I would like to see quality home produced programmes, either made by the stations themselves or by independents.

    It woiuld be nice to see Ireland Live TV on Sky/DTT as it's crap on dialup! Does anyone here watch that channel? It would probably be on Sky sooner than me getting broadband internet!:rolleyes:

    I count 24 votes, but the Total only says 13. Have I gone mad ?

    Apart from that, any time I try to watch Ireland Live TV, it's not live at all.

    Very disappointing.

    It gives the correct total when you log off.

    Ireland Live TV is very minamal, Its like EuroNews but with out the pictures instead they give you presenters.

    I'd love to see more comedy on the Irish channels, also more home grown talent!

    I would have thought that there was enough Current affairs on the box at the moment espically with the GE coming up.

    I suppose it only comes from RTE, TV3 are very slow on this one.

    I surprised to see a good few of you wanting more Reality TV and Morning shows on the Telly.

    I thought there is enough in the line of Current Affairs??
