There's not much point in making a quick check now. The takeover is said to be taking place on 1 July.

It's been said at least 3 times in this thread that the RLC brand is going or gone, but they have just revised and relaunched their website. I can't believe anyone would bother to redesign their website if they were going out of business in a few weeks time, so it must be the case that RLC are planning to survive this takeover.

If it becomes "Expanded Red Light", does that mean the name will be changed to "Strip Light" as they are longer

yo0u'd get funny looks in B & Q if you said "Have you been watching Strip Light lately?"

Or xpanded intend to continue broadcasting using the Playboy & Red Light identities.

Yes, but did they ask all the other babes if they wanted to work for Expanded. And given that the exodus has already started with Lucy's move to ST66 I doubt it very much.
You can now see why Dannii left back in February, she wanted to get out before the rot finally set in and you can't blame her. I wouldn't be at all surprised if more babes don't leave as I can't see any of them wanting to stay and work for a channel like Expanded
Lynda Leigh & Charmaine Sinclair should move to Goldengirls, and depending on her age Ani James should move to either ST66 or GGTV as well.

It's going to hit some babes hard if they are away on holiday and they come back and don't have a job to go to (I can possibly think of one but not naming names!!)
It depends if S66 will make an approach to Lynda or Charmaine but i'm wondering if Sin TV would be better boosted with their prescence
I have found Expanded to be the most boring channel on FTA, and I can quickly see the RLC sets being slowly dismantled in favour of Expanded style bed sets....yawn.....

Will Xpanded be on days after this happens then, once again?
