Last I heard a channel can broadcast for oddly 12 weeks without any programming on Freeview. It's, obviously, much shorter on Sky, in fact the reason BBC3 kept those graveyard programmes at 2am - 4am for a few weeks when it originally closed until it was fully removed was so they could broadcast a holding slide on Sky.
