I suspect this is more of a PR stunt by Channel 4 rather than any meaningful attempt to start investing in religious programming. I don't have a problem with it though, it can broadcast what it wants, and the market place will decide whether to support it - via commercial sales and viewing figures. I don't exact this to be much of a ratings winner though!

This is general discussion.
Or General Panic Stations...
That's about right
I suspect we'll have GD's EDL fanboys along soon to tell us that we're all going to be islamificated or something like that. Can't really see a problem though.
This is ch4 going back to what they were originally created for, and that was not pandering to the DM audience.
Desperation for what? Viewers?
Yes..
Keep on trying, I'm sure you'll hit the argument jackpot before 10am
I see where you're coming from. Trying to get more Muslims to watch Come Dine with Me is all part of the master plan!
Exactly. They've got a long history of "diverse" programming along these lines which I'm sure will be conveniently forgotten whilst the outrage reaches fever pitch.
I'm glad I'm not the only one that remembers when they started out.
Maybe a Muslim version of Loose Women with a stoning each episode, that'll get viewers.
3am...
terrifying?????
Exactly. Who cares. Benny Hinn and all those money grabbing televangelists are things that should be off tv screens.
3am, apparently.
I don't think it's compulsory to watch channel 4.
Ah that's ok then, well after the watershed, and just a few stoned students will be watching I'd imagine.
I have never been more unimpressed with a broadcaster in my life. I'll go as far to say I'm disgusted.
Don't worry you'll be OK.
