Even though TJC are rescuing some of Ideal World, presumably Peterborough isn't part of their plans?
I've not been following this thread but why would QVC need another two satellite EPG slots?
Thanks! Peterborough is sadly not part of the plans. The new Ideal World channel will broadcast from TJC's studios in Feltham.
QVC bought our Sky slots to move QVC Style and QVC Extra up the guide.

The branding will be the same. We've handed over many of our creative assets to them. They said to us their aim is for it to look and feel like Ideal World as much as possible.

Glad to hear it will have some of the same feel to it. It will be interesting to see what the sets will look like, unless they've bought some of those like Hochanda did with Create and Craft?

I thought TJC came from the West Midlands somewhere, or is that another shopping channel?

Gems TV is the Redditch based home shopping channel.

I’m pretty sure at one point there was another Jewellery based one from somewhere in Warwickshire.
*Seems it was Rocks & Co based in Leamington Spa.

Yes the HD channel ceased broadcasting today, although Freesat haven't yet taken it off the guide which is awkward...
Not sure why Arqiva haven't switched off Extra yet (the alignment test) but expect that to end soon.
TJC are preparing a promo for me to play so expect Freeview channel 51 to come back to life tomorrow.

Thanks for the update. Which channel will that go out on? Old ideal Extra?

If you mean Channel 51 Freeview? That's Ideal World. The main channel.
