[QUOTE="Carrie Fairchild, post: 222732, member: 673"] There is an appetite for older B&W programming. There's a British channel called Taking Pictures TV. It started as a niche channel airing predominantly B&W films, newsreels and series and has gained something of a cult following. They've already rerun the ITV daytime soaps [I]Rooms [/I](70's) and [I]Together[/I] (80's). The viewing figures for it's top rated programmes average around 100k+, so the likes of [I]Coronation Street [/I]and [I]Emmerdale[/I] might be out of it's budget right now but they have transitioned to airing better known series over time like [I]Widows[/I], [I]Van Der Valk[/I] and [I]Robin's Nest[/I], so as their popularity (and budget) continue to grow, I wonder will better known soaps feature on their lineup.
