It might not be the paramount point - just a little icing on the cake.

I have no 'Extra' on freeview and yes I have re-tuned

Do you mean it's not on your EPG or that you aren't receiving it? (Ch 96 doesn't start until 1:00am.)

Scratch that, I think it has replaced babestation.

I seem to remember other occasions when her apparently throw-away remarks have turned out to be something rather more significant. Just a thought.

I think we should re-name Geri as The Oracle.

It's replaced Party Girls on CH 96.

Excellent format, I hope they stick with it. I might even start texting in again.

Seems like a good move very promising, it takes me back to the good old days of Babestation. It seems like they are finally listening to 'us' , i've heard alot of people have missed this old format myself included, and we really wanted it back, and now as if by magic it's back. It's not just good for us it's good for the company because im sure with this method, they will be making much more money. With this channel now with the focus of two babes presenting and reading out texts, They will recive a flood of texts far more than they used to resulting in much more revenue. We also hope with this new system that they won't miss out or deliberately ignore certain texts but im not making any promises on that one However i hope that they will fulfill and act upon the texts that they recive but with Cellcast extreme tamness i don't see it really working for example here's a typical text you may see..., 'Dave345: can Ella go over to the bed and snog Paige it would make my night' 'Ella: Sorry i can't do that, but i'll blow a kiss for you instead how's that dave' Thats the typical responce you will get as a result of Cellcast's lame tamness, so just a word of warning to people who text in that sort of thing, it won't happen so don't get you're hopes up. The downside in Cellcast's point of view is there is one less channel to phone in which could result in problems for Cellcast as they wouldn't be making the money they were making when they had 4 channels to call in to, also it could be annoying for the callers because for example if there 'favourite' babe was presenting then would have to wait a while to be able to have a chance to call in. My opinion is looks good and promising but on the other hand in the long run it turn out to be a disaster. I think we all should just wait and see how it goes.

i for 1 was plesently supprised. i like the format as it gives the txters a place to be seen and lets you do somthing other than wait for a girl to return. girls like yvette will shine on this channel as we will get to see her funny side a lot more, coz to be honest all the channels are a bit 1 dimensional when it comes to the girls....
is its about time they got off there asses and did somthing like this... and its not so much as a nostalgic return to the good old days but a much needed 1...

At first I thought it was another wank idea from BS but after watching about ten mins I was pleasantly surprised at how much they show their feet hah I'm gna get txting next time

I too at first was unsure about the new format but quickly began to enjoy the show. It was similar to the old style of shows but with a new element. I think it was evident that the old format had become stale (no reflection on the girls) and I think the girls seemed to enjoy the fresh stimulus last night.
The good point to me is the banter we now get and the fact you can see who is on the main screens and when they are on, all from the one place.
Cellcasts profits will go through the roof if the number of texts continues like last night!

Couldn't the girls just read out text messages sent in on each of the BS channels themselves like they used to when a girl is not on screen?
