Maybe if we look at the current situation with Channel 4 programming, we can take a different view, and see these cutbacks as a chance now for the channel to bring in fresh new shows. Also to give more chance to new shows such as Late Night Lycett which I see has a large potential for being a very strong show. They barely gave it a chance, a handful of shows and now a long wait until the Christmas special in December (already filmed)

Comedy is where Channel 4 need a good kick up the arse. When need more comedy - they had a great hit with Derry Girls which is now over, they have a very decent hit with Big Boys which is now filming it's second series, but we do need a lot more, not just comedy, but comedy drama, new panel shows, new satire.

C4 could have aired the Popmaster quiz post Countdown for a quiz show block, given the publicity around Ken Bruce.

Instead it's airing at 8pm across this week on More4 (was it intended to be weekly, and C4 decided to reformat it due to Wimbledon the following week?) and I've not seen much promo.
