I see on the freeview two "NEW" programs.............
One is Treasure Hunt.

The other is a film, "Coma"

As I am a little long in the tooth, I certainly remember Anneka Rices' shapely form leaping in and out of Helicopters,and the running rear view of her........... in Treasure Hunt........

And the film Coma may certainly be "NEW" to Freeview........but not to me or many other filmviewers, I should think!!

Ah - the film - that's probably telling you it's the first viewing on freeview of many repeats. Well, that's if you consider how many times the Shawshank Redemption (as one example of many) has been repeated.

The Treasure Hunt is a different one to the one Anneka was in - it's (as usual) finding out if something's worth anything.

The Coma is a drama production not the film......

....but I find it amazing that they can't even think of new names!!!

....and that 'finding' of repeat names probably cost thousands in the employment of a company....
