  • Here we go, this is the very last time Forces TV is on the air, and ending off with a rather exciting closedown, even I was not expecting that!
    Forces TV has been on the air since 2014 and aired mainly news from the armed forces and classic programmes such as Hogans Heroes and Doctor Who. Many BBC, ITV & American programmes as aired on that channel which no other channel could offer (not even Talking Pictures) and after the final episode of Selwyn Froggitt, here's that closedown sequence everyone's been talking about.
    As you know, this is captured from my Virgin TIVO box, so huge thanks to them for not spoiling anything.

    4:10 See, THIS is what I hate about Virgin TV. They keep doing stuff like this whenever a channel launches or closes down, putting their own slides over what's actually being played and ruining the broadcast. Freesat and Sky (for the most part) does not have the same issue.

      It doesn’t happen when a channel launches. It only happens when a channel gets its final closedown.

    I was a rather late convert to FTV. Very disappointing that it's no more as it showed some classic 70s and 80s programmes.☹️

      @@DanielMullins-c4s1 TV channels are always doing things like that though. Over the last couple of years when ITV 3 has been showing old episodes of Coronation St, they're intent on crowbarring Christmas episodes in four or five times a year.
