Identify Old Channel Help

Private detective?! No I believe I'm a little more thorough than those detective chaps. Yeah, Fast Girls did sound wrong for your description, Juan. Fast Girls is obscure now, but it wasn't at the time, and this mystery show sounds really short-lived. Even so, you can guarantee there'll have been an argument on DigitalSpy between people who loved it and people who hated it.

More about Motors TV's Scalextric/stripping show here - it was called Racing Strip.

The Wrestling Channel/TWC/Fight Network began in March 2004 and often showed sexy ads for phone services (the original Bang Babes show). Like Motors TV, they were prepared to try different shows with boobs on them, with no relevance to the sport they were meant to be covering. How strange

As well as Bang Babes ads, at one time TWC was also running some half-hour teasing videos with soft erotic scenes that didn't go anywhere. Not sure what they were selling or advertising, but there were these two "bored housewives" playing with each other strictly above the equator, and this dominatrix dominating a girl with a cat o' 9 tails, strictly whipping only the table and never the girl. The kind of porn MediawatchUK would approve of.

Maybe TWC also tried some live erotic shows of its own at some point - it's the type of channel that was open to the idea anyway - they were young and needed the money... the Wrestling Channel did show some Babestation or Babestation 2 in May 2004 (simulcast with Hollywood TV apparently).

In case this jogs your memory at all Juan, these were the numbers for the sports channels on Sky in August 2003:

401 Sky Sports 1
402 Sky Sports 2
403 Sky Sports 3
404 Sky Sports Xtra
406 MUTV
408 Sky Sports news
412 Eurosport GB
413 Eurosportnews
416 Motors TV*
418 attheraces
420 NASN
422 Extreme Sports*
427 Chelsea TV
433 Premiership+
435 Setanta Sport 1
436 Setanta Sport 2

440 onwards was the music channels. After May 2004 some different numbers were used as they reshuffled channels including Motors TV and Wrestling Channel:

410 - British Eurosport
411 - Eurosport News
413 - Motors TV
415 - attheraces
417 - NASN
419 - Extreme Sports Channel
421 - Chelsea TV
423 - The Golf Channel UK
425 - I Sports TV
427 - The Wrestling Channel

I-Sports TV had some connection with Get Lucky TV, which (at least later) showed Babestation - see here: "Avago, Game In TV, I-Sports TV, Nation217 AND now Get Lucky TV" ... "They are linked through the Digital TV Group". But I don't know if I-Sports ever showed anything naughty.

As for the other JuanKerr, alas...

Quote:Juan Kerr must be flush, he seems to be texting every few minutes.

Quote:Juan Kerr is either the richest fool in Christendom, or a plant to keep the ball rolling.

Quote:Either way his name is apt.

Quote:(From another DS thread) When calls slow up I am sure that staff text messages in to try and get others to text. The same way that letters pages in magazines and even newspapers are made up by the staff when things are slow and they need to fill space. Full names and addresses are never used to JT of Essex or Disgruntled of Epping Forest or Stud Boy of Chipping Ongar could be anyone. This does actually happen, believe me. I cannot belive there are so many sad people around that text these banal message in anyway.

Quote:Hi
i really cannot understand why the itc havent acted upon thsi channel at all!!!
Surely they arnt allowed to broadcast suvch material, without it having parental restrictions??
Still, good to see that thay are trying new types of programming i guess.

Friendly TV's so funny. They put on a summer 2003 show called Free Sex TV (classy name!) to big ratings, and they expected not to get slammed by the ITC on four counts? Ah well, at least they tried. They still did better than Sexysat TV. (Friendly was on 268 or something btw, not in the 400s.)

Quote:Three viewers complained that Free Sex TV was too sexually explicit
