It's hardly surprising that a "petrol head" like me would quickly find himself totally hooked to a satellite channel like "Dave" where you get constant and daily repeats of cracking car shows like "Top Gear" and "Fifth Gear". Dave is one of the hundreds of free-to-view satellite channels that ...  Read the complete review

Dave is one of my favourite channels on the box. Many jokes are made at Dave's expense, Top Gear and Mock the Week having a pop about being repeated there for years to come. The repeats however are the main appeal for me. The shows, which Dave 'chooses' from the BBC, are some of my favourite shows. These include Mock the Week, Top gear, ...  Read the complete review

DAVE is the ultimate man channel. The channel basically focuses around playing replays of programmes such as top gear, fifth gear, dragons den, mock the week etc. The channel also shows clip shows with funny clips. Dave is available on freeview which is excellent as well as sky and virgin. It is a great channel to relax and watch on a sunday ...  Read the complete review

Of course, it's the wonderful 'Dave'...the artist formerly known as UKTV G2. Not exactly the most exciting of sounding television channels, so they glamourised it...by called it 'Dave'...because everyone knows a Dave. The concept of the channel is simply a station airing predominantly repeats of entertainment and comedy shows. It ...  Read the complete review

Initially launched in 1998 as UK Gold Classics, then renamed UK Gold 2, then renamed UKTV G2 before finally being relaunched under its current moniker, channel Dave shows reruns of popular comedy and light entertainment shows. These are at least reasonably fresh, (by which I mean averaging a mere 3-5 years old) with the channel's current roster ...  Read the complete review

Dave is on channel 19 (freeview) or sky 111. I have a freeview box and Dave+1 (Dave Ja Vu) is on channel 25. The channel was previously called UK TV Gold 2, but it was renamed Dave as during it's relaunch it was decided that the programmes would be aimed towards men and 'everybody has a mate called Dave' Programmes include Top Gear, ...  Read the complete review

Dave TV has to be the best TV station there is. First up, the name is just so inventive: I love it. This TV station shows a lot of brilliant shows, and multiple episodes of them. Go here if you like Top Gear, Whose Line is it Anyway or Dragons Den, as the station is filled with them. There are adverts, which is a pain, but if you can put up with ...  Read the complete review

I believe Dave is best described as 'The perfect channel for blokes' It's a testosterone fueled mixture of comedy, fast cars and tough documentaries, all that's missing is a program dedicated to pole dancing... The channel was originally launched during October 1988 under the name of 'UK Gold Classics' since then it has changed name four ...  Read the complete review

Where do I start with Dave, well I would say that this TV channel is supposedly aimed more at guys but I love most of the programmes shown. Does that make me an exception, I don't think so, I would guess most women would watch this channel even if it was just for the odd programme. I believe that the channel was originally called UK Gold ...  Read the complete review

Dave is a UK television channel owned by UKTV which can be found on Freeview channel 19 or Sky 111. It is a fairly new channel having only been launched in 2007 taking over from the original UK Gold Classics. According to UKTV, the name of the channel was chosen because "everybody knows a bloke called Dave". This statement pretty much ...  Read the complete review

Dave is one of the best channels on TV! I would be good on if it were just on Sky but to have it on the free service Freeview aswell is just brilliant! Dave is part of the UKTV channels, who have recently slightly changed all the channel names, with Dave being one of the first to change and become "the home of witty banter". This slogan ...  Read the complete review

This is one of the best new channels to appear on Freeview and Sky TV. Just recently Dave has launched its catch up channel Dave-Ja-Vu, playing Dave programmes an hour later. I really like the fun feel of this channel, even the voice over man tries to have a laugh. The programmes shown are, for the mostpart, repeats from terrestural TV ...  Read the complete review

Dave is the channel that was previously called UKTV G2, but the name was changed not that long as, as one of the first in the network of UKTV channels to better reflect the content that is shown on the channel. The reason that the operators gave as the reason they decide on Dave, is because most people will know a person called Dave, and this is ...  Read the complete review

What can I say about the Dave channel.... Well I have to say this. The channel previously known as UKTV G2. The channel has had a major change when it changed its name to Dave and in doing so became ten times better. The Dave channel is found on sky channel 111 and on freeview channel 19.

Rating:

Do you know a bloke called Dave? You must do, everyone knows a bloke called Dave. I ask this because, it would seem that is the basic notion that the television channel Dave has been so named. Apart from also the fact that the name has connotations of 'blokeishness'. Other accounts say the name was thought up in honour of a ...  Read the complete review

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 ...  Read the complete review
