That's not just when the channel's audience is at its lowest, but is when it is so low that they couldn't even justify separate overnights after four months of News 24 back in 1998 - when the channel was nearly all bespoke UK-only and non-simulcast content.
Well let me say now that i won't be the first to break if they do demerge because this whole merger is nonsensical full stop-There is every justification not to have US and Singapore output on the channel, you're just not prepared to listen which is fine but don't say you weren't all warned if the channel closes completely a few years down the line.
