Blimey it’s been a good week to be Channel Five. Sorry, ‘Five’  (“It’s a good week to be Five” just didn’t look right, somehow)

Firstly the coup that is FlashForward. Feck, that first episode was a corker! There go my Monday nights. Channel 4 and BBC2 – who are, lets face it, the usual coup-masters when it comes to landing decent US exports – must be spitting.

All I need now is terrestrial access to True Blood (coming to Channel 4 I believe, so a sigh of relief from them) and my sad little TV-orientated life will be complete.

Anyway, that’s off the point…

So, then sacks and sacks of free publicity for said blessed channel thanks to the Freeview retune, “to provide 500,000 homes with Five for the first time”.

Nice.

Drinks all round this evening one imagines.
