Not seen this mentioned. Old news now (two weeks) but a bit of a bummer for freeview viewers, no more Jeff on a Saturday afternoon. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/business/10346894.stmNo doubt due to Ofcom's ruling on Sky's sports channel pricing.

That is sad. I guess I'll have to start watching the BBC red button equivalent.

He reminds me of Carlton from the Fresh Prince of Bel Air.

Barnard, that is an awesome clip. It's not often you find yourself feeling a bit sorry for Richard Littlejohn!

Good, don't see why we Sky subscribers had to pay for it when Freeview owners didn't anyway.

Seconded Batch. I have Sky but don't get it as i don't pay for sports or news, yet loads of friends do because they have freeview. Used to piss me off, because i can't get freeview!

That's my life ruined then. Seriously. SSN is the king of all channels - but I'm not fucking paying for it.

It's also part of the News & Events Pack as well as the Sports pack. If you don't have one of these you can't get it.
