They have launched, under the "That's" branding. I would agree that YourTV might have a case, but since they aren't using that name on air, a legal battle with Fox might be very expensive and pointless.

Slight update for the placeholder, it has it starting at 1pm on Oct 1st. Just for launch day only?

The +1 placeholder also says it starts at 1pm... If it is an actual full time +1 service shouldn't it start at 2pm?

It's Fox and is therefore evil. I will delete it as soon as it appears on the programme guide.

This morning it is showing a promo loop showing the sort of programmes it will air. The +1 channel still has the 'coming on 1st Oct' message.

So far I've seen 'Corrupt Crimes', 'Baking Good, Baking Bad', 'Don't Tell the Bride', Shark' and 'Valentine Warner's Wild Table' in a loop.

Size or age?

Perhaps they were just testing but the promo loop didn't last long, it's gone now.

The +1 was broadcasting between 3-4am. Wouldn't surprise me if this is a permanent arrangement!

Looks like Community will be dropping back to a few hours overnight when this launches, unless it moves back to COM7/8.

IF another channel was to make way for YourTV+1 in primetime, I think the most likely would be Rocks & Co reducing their hours to afternoon and relying more on IP delivery.

I wouldn't call it 'live' exactly, it was like that a couple of days ago and there isn't much on it.

I think "Your TV" will be similar to "FoxLife".

Hence 'page' rather than 'site' and it hadn't been posted before.

Why don't channels like YourTV carry Fox branding? Quest and Pick are other examples. You would have thought these media giants would want to promote their brands in the hope people will pay for their premium channels on Sky etc.

They probably think that would devalue their brand.
Anyway, They use these channels as a vehicle to promote their flagship premium channels.

Probably due to Sky.

Goes away back to the days when C4 were going to have to call E4 "E4 Lite" just to go free. I think over the years some companies have embraced quirky branding as it worked well for Dave.

Even Sky debranded Sky3 for some reason.
