ryno_091 Posted April 25, 2011 Report Posted April 25, 2011 There was definitely no episode this morning. This is the first time they have ever failed to show an episode on a weekday. they had a good reason not to they arent skipping any ep it resuemes as normal tomorrow so i dont know how they failed they aird special programing last year for anzac day
Old H&A Fan Posted April 25, 2011 Author Report Posted April 25, 2011 They could have done that on the main channel. The purpose of these new digital channels is to free up space for programming, isn't it?
rat_licker Posted April 25, 2011 Report Posted April 25, 2011 I HAVE SOME BAD NEWS: I just checked the Advance Guides on the TV Tonight website and found that, for the first time in the more than a year since 7TWO started airing the episodes, there is going to be an anomaly in the otherwise perfect pattern of 5 episodes a week they have kept since then. Home And Away will NOT be shown on 7TWO on Monday, April 25. Instead, all morning on 7TWO is garbage that could just as easily be shown on the main channel for those that want to watch it. Home And Away: The Early Years is back on 9am the Tuesday morning as a single episode as normal and hopefully not skipping any episodes. I hope this is an isolated instance and not an instability in the scheduling that I suspect led to the cancellation of the last repeat run. On the main channel is normal programs (Sunrise etc.) while 7TWO is filled with this "Anzac Day" stuff where we normally should be having Sons & Daughters, H&A, Shortland Street, etc.. I wouldn't have been able to watch Home and Away even if it had been on this morning. I was visiting my grandfather who risked his life fighting for this country. Do you not think it's more important to honour these heroes, to remember and learn, than to watch a fictional television show? You saying programs that are about Anzac Day, about people like my grandfather, are 'garbage' is insulting, disrespectful and disgusting.
Ryan Posted April 25, 2011 Report Posted April 25, 2011 You can't beat a good Hitler documentary IMO - indeed I don't know why someone hasn't went the whole hog in the UK and just started a channel called The Hitler Channel, you rarely get a history documentary about anyone else! I can see both points of view though.
notlookingback Posted April 26, 2011 Report Posted April 26, 2011 Not wanting to continue on the ANZAC day debate too much longer, I have to say by all means give them their day and do anything we think fit to remember those fallen. I'm just glad no episodes were skipped.

As I said they could have put that on the main channel. I don't take too kindly to this kind of abuse just for objecting to the disruption to the schedule like that.
Ryan Posted April 26, 2011 Report Posted April 26, 2011 They should do what the British do - have your main rememberance kind of day on a Sunday when the morning TV is rubbish anyway! Another cooking programme anyone?
