This channel is dedicated to the history of UK Television, whether that's the channels, the adverts, the shows and the music. I've previously looked into early Satellite television in the UK and Europe, a Three part series on Channel 4's Breakfast shows, and even the odd mock ident and re-dub.

So here is a sort of re-work of the original start of Episode 1 of the TV Affair. I was going to do it full length but my producer head wouldn't let me so i cut it all out. This one is for a programme called "Lemons Are So Good".

Slightly delayed due to life reasons, but here is the full version of what I'd originally made for the start of the last video The idea with this is daft. It's a "Found" videotape recording of a disaster that occurred due to an accident Noel Edmonds caused. In order to undo this, a protocol has to take place in which the world is restored to it's last recovery point. This is all balls obviously...

Television Affair 22 - Local Cable Channels

When a company used to win a franchise from the authority to run a cable company, they usually promised some sort of local channel. This might include extra entertainment such as an exclusive film channel for the area, or some sort of public access TV. This would usually be organised by the cable company for local people to book out equipment and make programmes for the channel Some of those mi...

Television Affair 19 - More Defunct Channels

In this mega short episode of the Television Affair, we take a look at some more defunct channels. Generic channel and station names suck because you end up not finding anything about them and a bunch of junk comes up in your search. And this is what plagues our first channel. It was on air for years, but you'd be hecked to find any trace of it. It started life as Eat Cinema, but after less tha...

This week we're looking at the Box Network, it's history and the channels that are currently on air, along with the ones that are'nt. The box Plus network was once owned by the video jukebox network in the early 1990s and at that point was based in the US. They launched a UK Version but in the early 00s, the owners Emap, had sold the US version to MTV. Emap launched some new TV channels named a...

It's part 2 of Sky's launch line up and today we're looking at channels 500 . We'll be looking at Music, Kids, Shopping and the rest, along with something called "Music Choice" which was originally a radio type service that changed into a red button service where you had a choice of other music to chose from. I touch on Sky's interactive services but to see more videos about that (which is a wh...
Cinematel Trailer (mock)

So here's a channel you've probably never knew about unless you had cable in the early 80s in a small pocket of the UK. Cinematel was run from Swindon Cable and from what I gather was distributed to some other cable networks. Cinematel was owned by EMI. It played films and was a fore-runner to services like Mirror Vision and Prem1er before Sky showed up. I'm not sure how accurate this would hav...

Any news on new videos?
The new version was bloody awful that was not the proper big breakfast they no opening long full big breakfast theme tune and intro yeah it was two loud and just wanted to mute the tv the presenters where so annoying and two political correct with the whole all black hosts i know why they did it the first time because black history month by but why did they carry on with that when they did full the series it should've been white and black presenters.
Best breakfast show ever ❤
Only a minute in and had to drop a comment on the programme Zzzap. I was only 10 when it first came out, but it felt like one big acid trip!! Other shows i loved were Harry's Mad, Knightmare, Dreamstone, Count Duckula, Funhouse, Art Attack, talespin, sooty and how 2. We were certainly blessed with these shows!
I'm fairly certain the voice at 17:13 is that of the hologram who reads the news on groovy funky Channel 27!
Wow I remember this in the early days of TCC or The Childrens Channel as it was called back then but only ever been able to find the French version.
You forgot Nynex
The other one is better - less boring
The Big Breakfast was a fairly volatile format channel 4 seemed to grapple with on/off during it's 9 year run. After Chris left it floundered, they tried a number of rejiggs but could never really recapture the magic by design alone.. The initial relaunch removed all of the quirky distinguishing contrasting elements which made it attractive to audiences over rivals.. The Johnny Vaughn and Denise Van Outen pairing which put the bb back on track was a complete fluke though. Denise was hired as the roving weather girl originally during the Rick and Sharon era. Sharon left, Denise was co-opted in to present with one of the Richards. One of the aforementioned went on holiday. Johnny Vaughn was brought in as a temporary standin they only intended to use for a week.. It was a complete accident they struck upon the pairing which ultimately reinvigorated the show. Then Denise and Johnny dynamic soured a year or so into the pairing after Johnny went behind Denise's back during contract renegotiations (Vaughn was daft tbh. The show was countenanced on the back of their chemistry. ) Channel 4 probably attempted to devise a format that could withstand the rigors of onscreen personality changes. RI:SE was a bit too clinical and sterile. Never really attracted the interest or investment of audiences..
ITV's declining quality is visible even as a non-brit fan. Alongside with BBC, Channel 4 has definitely become the hub for great dramas and comedy in the UK. C4 has been like that for a while (Allowing Wallace and Gromit series to begin there),but still unlike ITV, they believe in young talent like Lisa McGee (Derry Girls) and Phoebe Waller-Bridge (Crashing)! ITV should reintroduce their local production hubs with its identity as an 2 year experiment or something and see how it takes them!!!
Sub more, this is great
Just finished watching all of the Television Affair episodes to date - this is a really fun series! The irreverence of the presentation and narration in tandem with the deep dives into the more obscure areas of TV history is RUclips gold. For oddballs like me, anyway. Thanks for the entertainment!
Bring this show back, we need this to brighten up our mornings again, so depressing nowadays, no fun
Bird epilepsy confirmed
Nobody represents anybody just because they have the same skin colour. It is a primitive emotion, it promotes an us and them attitude. White supremacists have exactly the same destructive and reductive view of hummanity. It is disgusting. NOBODY represents you except yourself and anyone you VOTE to. Shame on you lefties for promoting such vile bs.
It's such a shame you did this after what was an excellent video until you promoted diversity like it is an actual thing. That is political bs. Have black people now become just a tool or vessel for your own politics?! Typical racists using other human beings for their own ends. You remind me of Victorians who would show of 'curiosities' from around the world for your viewing pleasure. So sick.

may i ask what the background music is from 6:00 onwards. Sounds cool.

2008, my youngest daughter and I, she had a bath and fresh pyjamas, then we watched In The Night Garden. That theme tune is almost unbearably melancholy.
I did hear that the masters of the Fulton McKay Fraggle Rock inserts have turned up in someone's shed
Theme tune to Music Box.
08:08 Isn't that Andreas Wisniewski, aka Necros in "The Living Daylights and Tony in Die Hard?
I remember On Digital/ITV Digital, basically being killed off by every pub in the land having someone-who-knew-someone who did those "gold" cards that unscrambled everything so you didn't have to subscribe. When you look into the company that manufactured those illicit cards and who the shareholders were.... A certain cadaverous 170yr old Australian/American media mogul is renowned for "win at any cost"
44:40 this was utter 🗑... Certainly not the big breakfast.. 45:30 also utter 🗑 .
Is The Television Affair returning at a later date?

Thanks for the shout out on the radio yesterday! You got the name bang on by the way. 😊
Zig and zag. Miss
Did RUclips mess with the sound in part of this?
Also I found a Diamond Cable outlet in my Nottinghamshire home the other week. Shame there's nothing being broadcast through that cable now...

Great to have you back!
