2:00-5:00am - No Information available (I wonder what that's about!)
except part of that corresponds to Dave's downtime. |

Dave Ja Vu's residual hours perhaps.
Oh, sorry, no it can't since part of that corresponds to Dave's downtime. |

The US also uses something similar (virtual channel numbers) - e.g. Fox 25 Boston is now on UHF 31 but still has the channel number 25.1.

IIRC the Netherlands also use them with radio services starting from 1 again (hence the irritating TV/Radio split on many boxes). |

2am-5am Source: EPG Presumably Dave is 24hr on Sky. Also I note that UKTV are happy for both channels to start up and close down in the middle of programs. |

Interesting that Dave goes off-air at 3am, so Djv's last hour is not a repeat.
Presumably Dave is 24hr on Sky. Also I note that UKTV are happy for both channels to start up and close down in the middle of programs. On Virgin (last time I checked) there was a channel off air slate on Dave from 3am until the teleshopping strand starts at 4am, the EPG suggests that this is still the case. Digiguide also shows no programmes on Dave between 3am and 4am. It looks like the last hour of Dave Ja Vu is going to be the TV equivalent of watching paint dry.

Keeping the EPG number alive again then for potential future use!
I'm watching to see what happens when ESPN closes on TUTV, it will be interesting to see if they try to move Home from 54 to 34. |

![]() At 3am on Tuesday Dave will switch off in the middle of "Mock the Week", but at 4am DJV will show the rest of it and go on to show Frank Skinner's Opinionated. |

They could all just drop down to fill the gap, though I suspect that 4seven would like to stay on 47. (a mystery to me why C5+1 went on 44 and not 51) |

I suspect a lot of channels are reluctant to move once they have established a loyal viewership who know the LCN. New channels are more likely to take the opportunity of a move.

And presumably 41 & 42 will go at some point as well.
Unless... |

It's a sad reflection of the state of TV when watching LCNs change is more interesting than watching the programme content.

In the case of "Home" that's probably true.

Have a read of this: http://www.digitaluk.co.uk/__data/as...2013_FINAL.pdf btw, the most likely use of 41 & 42 is either (a) Film4+1 (associated channel status with 4seven, plus it is run by a PSB) and/or (b) Travel Channel (associated channel status with Food Network, which could conceivably also move to join it) |

While we are on the subject of the Drama channel (
), does anyone know the Radio Times ID code for it (and for that matter Movie Mix also) ?

Apparently no longer.
At 3am on Tuesday Dave will switch off in the middle of "Mock the Week", but at 4am DJV will show the rest of it and go on to show Frank Skinner's Opinionated. Having said that, Really has content between 4am and 8am on other platforms while its streams are turned off on freeview. A little more complicated though, as "Blue" is active from 4am to 5am. Perhaps "Blue" could be moved into the empty 5am to 6am slot on Arqiva B (where 5am to 8am is available). |

Interesting, although Dave's streams on Arqiva A are turned off between 3am and 7am, it isn't currently used by any other service. Perhaps Dave's hours could also be extended at some point.
