I was hoping for a golden oldies session with 'Nick at Night' on Nickleodeon, but it was Spongebob et al.

Instead of adverts there are some amusing animated shorts though.

I think the USA did beat England at football once (or maybe even twice). Still, it's not that astonishing. I well remember how in the seventies and eighties we would all think, "ah, we've drawn Norway/Switzerland/Austria. No problems there, eh?"
Oh dear.

In a rather desperate attempt to bring the thread back to its topic (and forum ) can I give 'Eurotour' a mention. The quality of the picture isn't great and the quality of the programming dependent on what they are given, but at least it is a decent attempt of providing a FTA channel using readily available material.

13E
10971 H
27.5
3/4

It is a rather mediocre 'gem' but I think worth a mention. It is a genuine FTA channel.
