Title: Keeping the 18 extra Olympic channels ?
Post by WG on Aug 14^th, 2016, 3:34pm

There are currently 18 BBC channels temporarily created for the events in Rio. Once the dust has settled, perhaps they should be retained?

The mind boggles at how numerous dedicated channels could be filled for 24 hours of BBC specialist and popular genres. All ideas welcome
