Advantages: Good variety of comedy shows.

Disadvantages: Sometimes repeats are shown

Dave is a TV channel that has only recently come on to Sky (within the last 6 months). It also as a +1 channel on which the programmes are shown an hour later (just in case you missed them). This is quite aptly called Dave Ja Vu, a play on the French words Deja Vu, which means the feeling or experience of familiarity.
Dave shows programmes such as Mock the Week, Never Mind the Buzzcocks, QI, Have I Got News For You and many other comedy shows, most broadcast on BBC, as the commentator always "created for the BBC, chosen by Dave".
It also shows other programmes such as Top Gear, Dragons Den and Ray Mears Bushcraft.
Some people would say Dave is geared towards a male audience - maybe this is displayed in the name - but I feel that many women enjoy this channel as well, due to the high standard of comedy shows.

Summary: Funny channel with a range of programmes.

Actually, it's not a new channel, it used to be UKTV Gold plus or something like that and the networks behind it renamed it. Their first advertising slogan was something like 'everyone knows a Dave' and the old channel was showing the same kind of programmes.
