Or it WOULD have been a scoop if I hadn't already posted it on http://troll.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?s=&threadid=72061

On a slightly different note - can you get UTV on other channels with a FTV card? I have all the other regions of ITV but no UTV, can it be got?

jomo, you have been registered since April and you have only just done your 1st post, he he he!

This is the best thing ever, was watching "Late show with David Letterman" last night.

It feels so good to have on my second digibox(ftv) another exclusive channel that will never be provided by NTL or Chorus or any operator in Ireland.

Hi G54 is now showing a blue info screen for Carlton TV. And has not shown ITV2 since this morning. I think we have lost ITV2 for now on FTA.:mad:

Well the last few days have proved something.
How much we don't need ITV2.
Its absolute rubbish.
David Letterman is ok if theres nothing else on. But apart from that its all trash, Re-runs of Inspector Morse.
They even show TV3's Haunted House.
Thats how stuck they are for material.

The two "hidden" FTA feeds of ITV2 have either gone or changed PID. The G54 isn't FTA, though obviously has been FTV.

Can't say I miss it.

How can you say, the last few days have proved that we dont need ITV 2, thats your opinion, i personally feel like i do need extra Champions League matches, and re runs of shows that i might have missed. An extra channel is an extra channel no matter what you say. And the fact that english viewers get it as part of their subscription and irish people dont is stupid.
After all channel 4 agreed to put E4 on the irish epg.

that works both ways. remember that RTÉ1, Network 2, TV3 and TG4 are part ofour subscription and the UK doesn't get those. personally i'd put ITV2 on par with the likes of BEN and You TV

Yep, it's gone a few days now. Well, it was only as a test channel after all.
