CTH ,a new season,what can we expect ?

[uptheos]

Another Little Englander? Only what comes out of the UK is any good?

I watch a lot of American series, I can't actually keep up

Currently watching Orange is the New Black, recently House of Cards with Kevin Spacey, binged on many old Dexter and thought True Detective was absolutely superb.....I enjoy American stuff very much, but I still think that apart from EPL, that CTH is crap. I guess we agree to disagree.

House of cards was great. Orange is the new black was ok. Haven't managed to quite like True Detective yet. Suits is good. The Blacklist was brill. Hannibal was good. In Saudi we are flooded with American series and a lot of em are pretty good to be fair

Agree on House of Cards, KS played his role really well. For me, True Detective was the highlight of the year, I was absorbed into the characters and I thought Mathew McConachy and Woody Harrelson did a great job. Whoever decided the sound track really knows his/her stuff, it just complimented everything. The Americans do this series stuff like water off a ducks back and seem to churn out quality series time and again. There is also rubbish, but enough quality that you're never short.

American Horror Story - particularly Coven, Mr B

There is plenty of rubbish but it's mostly on the networks.

The cable folks are doing some awesome stuff, and now you have NetFlix and Amazon joining in.

I've just watched the Wednesday Night Football Today Show with John Dykes and football reporters Neil Ashton and John Cross. Dykes is in his element when he's with these blokes. Absolutely different class to the usual dross.

Getting all patronising now are we Mr worldwide.

Like I say I don't watch UKTV, but is it better than cable tv?? Only an idiot would say no.

UK TV is nothing more than shit like Jeremy Kyle, crap soaps and quiz shows these days.

You are talking out of your behind.

You must be talking about afternoon TV Chic !!!

A selection from Monday evening : Fake Britain, New Tricks, The Hairy Bikers, Horizon, Dispatches,Royal Marines, Police Interceptors, Top Gear, A Touch of Frost, Murder she Wrote, Great War Diaries, Dragons Den, The Vice

Adds up to about 13 hrs so a bit more than Jeremy Kyle, crap soaps and quiz shows.

With all that on TV, I find it hard to understand why the pubs are all closing down

If I had known that you were to read the post bj then I would have added Coronation St, just to make you feel at home

Absolute S***

Just signed up to Truvisions Platinum

One minute they said the Arsenal vs Besiktas game was at 12:30pm, then say changed it to 1pm-3pm, then they showed only 15 minutes coverage between 12:30-12:45pm

No commentary, no score or time on the screen, no lineups

The free videos on the Arsenal website are better!!!

Absolute S***

PLEEEEEASE tell me that CTH is better and that they also show the Champions League???

Aw shoot. Don't know whether I should add to your misery, but your training needs take priority over sensitivity!

True Visions is fine. The full match was advertised as being on TS 2 HD channel (I know - I checked it myself on the on-screen Electronic Programme Guide so that the right channel would come up when I blearily emerged form bed to switch the match on). T'was there in full with proper English commentary in glorious HD. The replays of last nights matches are being shown today and also a one hour long highlights programme of all the 6 or so matches from last night - Kopenhagen v Bayer Leverkusen and Napoli v Bilbao were greta matches too. Tomorrow will be the same for tonights ties and thereafter over the following days you will still be getting replays and the highlights programmes. The only criticism I have about True is that it's difficult to tell which match is which on the on-screen guide - they often use "Match 001" rather than identifying the teams. I need to work out if their code is consistent and unencryptable! Secondly, the summary highlights hour is not commentated at all - you just get the match noise. I seem to recall that there might also be a magazine-style commented/pundited version later in the week

So, you need to get acquainted with the EPG. Press 'Guide' on the remote and scroll down to channel 666 "TS HD" - that's where the TS HD sports channels start and home of the Champions league.

You did the right thing buying True - it is the only provider with comprehensive CL coverage. You only needed the Gold package though. Some games (maybe most of the Arsenal ones will be made available to the Thai free to air channels but an English language commentary can't be guaranteed and sometimes maybe not HD (though I think that most of the fta channels have an HD version now -not sure of quality as good as True).

legend - thankyou for feeling my pain and helping me!

lucky it was a crap game this time round

Based on my last experience I'm guessing the 1:45am is the live one and likely to be only one that shows the whole game?

What do you reckon?

[SantiSuk]

Sounds about right. Im back in the UK at the mo, so can't check the channel number and the on screen programme guide but I would have expected it to be on TSP 1 or TSP 2 in HD (and also possibly at another programme number in non-HD)
