It's been on C4/Film4 for definite.
![]() By the way, no one's mentioned LET'S TALK ABOUT THE RAIN, screened at 2.35:1 on BBC 4 on Sunday. And BLADE, which 'premiered' last night at the correct ratio, too. |

Oceans 13 on ITV 2 the other night was in 16:9. It was on ITV 1 not long ago and was in 2.35:1 IIRC.

How the hell did that work out? Surely they had the rights to 12 before they got 13, or bought the rights for all of them at the same time, so they should all be in the same AR?

It was in a weird ratio when it was broadcast on UTV a few months ago. Not quite 1.85:1 and not quite 2.35:1. At least it's being shown properly now.

BBC1 now showing Con Air in 2.35:1 for first time ever (not in HD, though). Still, it's a step up. It's a top action film.

But sadly, not PAYCHECK on BBC 1, which is the one I wanted to see at the original ratio...
Goldeneye on ITV1 last night wasn't 2.35:1 btw. |

HD, you can tell as it has an HD tag before the [S] in the EPG, and "Also in HD" on the BBC One EPG.

Odd one, this: FREE WILLY 2: THE ADVENTURE HOME played at 2.35:1 on ITV 2 yesterday, under the abbreviated title FREE WILLY 2. Nice to see it that way, but it's frustrating that the first film in the series wasn't given the same treatment the day before.
Sadly, THE LIVES OF OTHERS - another film I was really looking forward to seeing - was cropped to buggery on BBC 2. One for the DVD rental list, I think... |

Blade was in the correct AR last time C5 aired it about a year ago.
