That's TV, a cheap, no-frills channel dedicated to music videos of the 70's/80's and classic British comedy, are showing it 7 nights a week at 2 A.M. and 5 A.M.
The transmission quality is terrible (VHS quality), but nevertheless, it's good to have it on-the-air again.
Episode #10, 'WHEN JUSTICE FAILS', was last night/the morning. Would be better if it was on at midnight. Seems a bit pointless screening the same episode 2 hours later.
They are the original 4:3 masters (not the cropped 16:9 ones) and at both times, every episode is over within 45 minutes. The only commercials are the channel's animated logo ident 3-4 times an hour. No adverts and not even a logo on-screen for the last 15 minutes of each ep. Feels like the old ITV screenings at times.

Ah memories of watching it on a Saturday afternoon before the inevitable Police Academy screening (usually 3).

I'm surprised they went to the effort of securing the rights to show this and then decide 2am and 5am are the best times for it. An afternoon showing or a weekend showing at least would have been nice. It will never be watched or even discovered at that time by anyone really. _________________
