As with most of these channels, if it's any good, record the entire output before it goes belly up and becomes another outlet for the abdomonizer! I really hope it works out for them, but if you record it all just in case, you can work your way through your archive of recordings at your leisure.

Thanks Graham, just tuned it in. Enjoying it already. It's playing a 'King Brothers' track to some cool unrelated 60's Pathe footage I'd say. 'The Marvelettes' now with some cool F.A Cup footage.....:-) I like this a lot!!

Unfortunately, the picture quality isn't the best standard, let's hope that this will change when the programm will have it's official start tomorrow, otherwise there will be no big difference in comparrision to You Tube !! It's good to know, that it worked out to be on air though.

This is a bit of a disapointment at the moment. Very few performances and some poor quality visuals & sound. Mainly archive film/tv footage. "material will be licenced from /bbc/itn source/eaglerock -and various other companys nearer the launch date." what happened to these licences? Hope it gets better than this.

I'm very disappointed with what looks like a missed opportunity. If there is no known footage to accompany a song then I have no problem in creating a video using news reel footage but when footage is known to exist but languishes in foreign vaults thats when it is inexcusable not to use it. Very poor listings for the week ahead, I and I'm sure many others won't be tuning in until some rarely seen footage is screened!

Ditto the Golden Oldie Picture Show (DLT) YTF did "we" have to pay extra for this to be produced in the bleedin first place 99.9% of the trax chosen exists in the archive anyway?
Ditto BSB, Cable (Virgin) and Sky, me, always had the argument YTF am we paying for these Channels when: 1:90% of the time most of the programming is BBC based 2: as licence payers we've already paid for it 3: 3 minutes into a progamme (we've already paid for to be produced and watched) you get an Ad break and when it was first tx there were no Ads in it
Hands up now, how many have: 1 A dish 2: 2 Dishes 3 Cable (Virgin or otherwise) 4: freeview/ freesat
Is not about time the BBC got it's bleedin act together and launched the "free" Simple to view it you type in yer bleedin Licence Ref No (not available outside the UK unless ex pats (I'll even copyright that idea) BBC Archive Channel. BBC big wigs take heed YOU know it makes sense.
Permissions needed? don't give me that same old same old ur talkin to one of the lads now (musiclly) "they' made their millions out of US the real fans the real people who woz there, if they chose to blow the whole bleedin lot on the R N R lifestyle big houses big cars, booze, drugs hookers ect ect (Not that any members of KOR do/ did the drugs)
And Wtf is this "new" channel not on Virgin? 80% of yers are reading this post on Virgin broadband.
BBC get it sorted
