    Nah, its a TV show. Setanta will look at it as: If they broadcast it on the internet as well for free, then why would people subscribe to the channel?

    T'aint like the old Bunce Hour, which was always FTA on a news channel so setanta were only increasing their chances of subscriptions that way.

    Kind of like how sky won't have their boxing review of the year available on the net to non-subscribers, neither will Setanta.

    Seems as though the only chance we've got of seeing it over here is by 'alternative' methods.

    Looks like it's one for the torrents then:yep. Man, I miss that show:-(. Best piece of programming I've seen for years. Enough of that anyway, we've all been over this a million times before. RIP televised Boxing Hour:verysad. Last year's boxing day special was awesome and Sky are doing one this year- wonder where they got the idea for that?:think:lol:
