TNT is a great channel for oldies, black and white and colour. I just really have major complaint. When I flick through with my remote control and see a film I might like to watch in the menu I like press the 'i' button and get some information.

TNT is a free 24 hour movie channel that is part of Ted Turner's CNN empire.

It's not got the latest action to compete with the Sky channels but if you like older, quality films you will love TNT. ... Read the complete review

I don` get the movie channels I watch this I like the old movies and this channel is dedicated to showing them ranging from the ganster movies White heat to the melodramas.

I watched this quite a bit in the days when I was too poor (or was it too mean?) to subscribe to the Sky Movies package. Started by the famous Ted Turner (he of CNN fame), it largely constitutes the entire film library of M G M in its glory days. Most of its output is pretty unmemorable 30s and 40s films (remember, there was almost no TV in those days), but it regularly rescreens such gems as Ben-Hur, Casablanca and Doctor Zhivago - usually in the original widescreen (letter-box) format (though even with my 28" TV, I sometimes feel I need binnoculars!. ...

Interesting dramas. Catch up lifestyle show.
Too many of the same re-runs
RTE 1
Large quantity of US imports, beats UK airdates, quality news, good on-air presentation, very wide programming variety
Scheduling times vary - often good programmes are screened only late at night, domestic programmes often reflect only a "Dublin" view of affairs
Sky News
Flexible enough to cover just one story at a moment's notice. Regular schedule means you know when things will be on.
Repetitive coverage and poor weekend programmes. Sometimes poor guests.
