Still can't say I agree with their trend of acquiring programmes that are already shown ad nauseum on their original channels.

Though the Original version fell out of that category about 5 year's ago.

I stand corrected. Must've confused it with one of the other ones.

Challenge being a competitor to the likes of HGTV or at a stretch Quest was definitely not on my bingo card.

Did they acquire them for Pick before the decision to rebrand it as Sky Mix? It wouldn't be the first time Challenge has ended up with non-gameshow programming - they showed wrestling at one point, inherited from Bravo which had closed down.

They've also showed Dickinson's Real Deal on and off throughout the year.

You need to get Knightmare, You Bet, Interceptor, Fort Boyard, Treasure Hunt, Scavengers, Krypton Factor, Generation Game, Who Dares Wins etc on Challenge, not Cash in the Attic. Still, as I said, as long as it brings in the ratings, that's what matters. It is not the Challenge of old though.

There was also the constant flood of poker, gambling and betting related shows that the channel used to frequently promote and show around the early to mid 2000s (Celebrity Poker Club, Showbiz Blackjack etc).

I know, it was already mentioned by Brekkie in post #320. By "them" I meant both that and Cash in the Attic.

... but that still makes no sense because Pick only became Sky Mix last week.
