853856 2010-01-31 07:49:00 Hi Guys
They are re-running Band of Brothers which is great I really enjoyed it years ago.

But I cant work out what they are doing.
It seems to be on late on Sundays and at 8.30 on Mondays !
That is stupid to be at such different times.

Also are they running the same episode again on the Monday or a new one ?
The promo ads always mention the Monday one, but what about the Sunday ones ?

Any clues ?

853857 2010-01-31 08:11:00 From the guide I check it would appear that the episode played on Sunday is a repeat of the previous Monday. Sweep (90)

853860 2010-01-31 11:20:00 Sweep's got it - it's for just in case you missed last Monday's episode. All the channels seem to do it these days. Fills airtime at no additional cost... johcar (6283)

This is not being played for viewers to watch. Rather it is for the advertisers to cram in as many as possible. !!!!!!!!!!! PJ

Rubbish.

It is exactly what the "pay" channels do.

One screening time does not always suit all viewers.

I think Poppa John was referring to the ratio of ads v's program. Offhand I seem to recall someone complaining that for 7 mins of B of B they got over 3 mins of ads.
