I've been asked for a separate category for Dave but I reckon it would be better to do one for all the UKTV stations. But that does include some, like Gold and Alibi, that are not FTA.
Is this a good idea?

I don't mind, but it seems to me that most of the Other Channels threads are already about Uktv channels, plus some Pick programmes. So effectively we already have this.....
I don't think Dave warrants a board of its own, unless we have one for Drama and one for Pick too.

I think if we have boards for Dave, Drama, Pick ... we're starting an unnecessary proliferation.
If we have a board for UKTV, there will be much mis-posting because generally people aren't sure which channels constitute UKTV.
So I say no.

Yes, I had to open the app on my Firestick to check which ones were on it as I only use it for Drama.

Ok, seems the majority vote so far is no. I will have a think about changing the title.

Ok, seems the majority vote so far is no. I will have a think about changing the title. Hi Miranda, My original point was that Dave are making more original content now, and as such, that channel should be deserving of it's own category. I should expand on that and say as a UK TV channel (as opposed to UKTV) I'd say that's something more worthwhile than, say a US based channel that produces original programming or a channel that serves up US output (first airing or repeat). I'm not sure why it should lead to any proliferation. But they are making good, original, programmes and they should get more than from a single, hard to find, thread. I guess a UKTV board would be OK, too, in the same way that BBC, ITV, 4 and 5 cover their sub-channels, as it would cover Yesterday which also has some original programmes.

Ok, I got you now. Let me have a look at the present threads and how many are for which channel and I'll work out a way to do it without any confusion on what goes where.

I would say "No thanks" because it could be confusing. However, I take cali4ster's point. I watch several programmes that are original to Dave - Red Dwarf, Dave Gorman's Modern Life Is Good-ish and Alan Davies As Yet Untitled, so if the vote goes against me, I won't be annoyed about it.

Ok, given Cali's erudite argument in favour, I have created a sub-board under Other Channels for the UKTV channels of Dave, Drama, Yesterday and Really.
If anyone gets confused about where to post, I will revisit the problem but I think it should be ok.
