That's why it was allowed (though, didn't Sky have a stake in Fox Kids, the channel which eventually became Disney XD, before Disney bought Saban and the channel with it?), but the reason they wanted to launch a kids channel is due to the loss of the Disney channels.

I'm not sure how true this is, but I think it's there because it has to be on EPG 106/206/806 on the Sky EPG.

Sky has a plethora of content that most people won't look into on the normal TV guides, so bringing it to Showcase at least widens their visibility to those who don't watch the other Sky channels.

Are any shows promoted as being on Showcase though - the trailers are usually for the individual brands. And of course they exist partly to have more sub brands in the on demand environment but also to replace those that went streaming only.

Not as trails. Occasionally gets crosspromoted on Sky Sports in their 'end of feature what's coming up on other channels' (menu?).

Sky Crime Italy confirmed for November 1st, it'll replace Crime+Investigation in Italy while retaining the same ownership
Maybe it's about time C+I UK also merged with Sky Crime, as far as I know the first is not in the best shape now?

Or perhaps rebrand it as Sky Crime 2 but use it for popup/themed channels throughout the year like Sky Cinema does quite frequently now.

Were they planning to broadcast crime horror to young people using mobile phones?

Is it normal for Sky Atlantic to have only 1-mins long ad breaks in the middle of the show, at least at peak times?
It appears to be the only Sky entertainment channel to have 2 internal ad breaks per hour instead of three.
