1. “Fine Wine” on Channel U. Billed as: “the only dancehall show you’ll ever need”. Actually: footage of what appears to be some Jamaican dude’s wedding reception held at a small town working men’s club shot through a static camera angle and with nobody actually playing music.

YSI?

About 10 o’clock either Thursday or Friday, I forget. Just after the adverts for mobile phone ringtones and rap videos consisting of 15 year olds shouting the words “rep”, “endz”, “on road”, “uh-oh”, and “man dem” in random order for three minutes.

is this Freeview?

you can only get Channel U on Sky i think. i really miss the tunes/vids although not the ringtone adverts every 5 minutes.

I thought Sky was satellite, not digital broadcasting, i.e. you need a dish not just an aerial?

digital picture tho innit

umm

digital picture/signal via their existing satellite network i thought?

they’re called ‘Sky Digital’ for something, i’m sure of it!

in answer to Dom’s question tho i’ll go for (ITV) Chart Show repeats on The Vault, just based on memory.

I heart Channel U. Tho if you’ve got Sky Digital then some of the videos on the African channels like BEN are absolutely wonderful.
