I think the Audi Channel (channel 451?) has gone (at least from the Freesat EPG). Anyone confirm or know anything?”

Anyone else lost Channel4+1 ?
Can't see it in the listings and when I put in 121 it says Channel Unavailable.

I guess one good thing about the recession is that its helping us get rid of some of the cr*p from our channel-lineup. Shame we dont have anything good joining Freesat to replace it.
Maybe, instead of speculating about what channels may join Freesat it would be more practical to run a book on what channel will bite the dust next.

Good point although I'm pleased Freesat allows you to just delete channels anyway. I removed all the religious tat the day after installing Freesat for example.

I wish I could rename the channels to look nicer like "BBC One" instead of "BBC1" but that's my OCD kicking in.

Are the most recent removals shutdowns or just removals from the FS EPG? I do not recall them mentioned in the Sky section.

So Pitch has pitched tent from Freesat. A departure of dross cannot be loss. But I bet the Sky fan boy trolls will inevitably make such events look like Freesat's lost Armageddon.

None of these recent channel removals has been a Freesat specific thing, they have all been removed from Sky also.
