Grand theft auto San Andreas type letters

20:45 LET IT BURN, LET IT BURN! MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA k I went too far now

20:21 Only kids PSA that I enjoy.

11:13 I don't like PSAs, specifically the early animated ones. On God they actually traumatised me, but maybe it's just bcuz I am a Gen Alpha kid? Odd.

7:59 This looks very cool for a kids TV channel... This is the kind of loop that makes me lie down on a hotel bed and relax, the music too is smth. Man I wish I was a 2000s kid, but I am a 2010s kid instead. :(

So funny to see mention of La cinq here, they were clearly not interested in becoming an European station, their satellite venture help them build classic transmitters on the cheap since they didn't need to get it from elsewhere

I hated Nickelodeon 😖 cartoon network was No1 by a mile, ed edd and eddy Johnny bravo the powerpuff girls and tons more.

When I was younger than 5, the logo from the Creature Comforts Think Electric adverts gave me nightmares.

09:20 I remember when UK Play was rebranded to Play UK. One of the billboard posters in the advertising campaign featured a picture of a young couple on a bed (fully clothed) laughing their heads off with a capion above them in speech marks: "I'm impotent". I was about 10 and didn't know what impotent meant.

17:10 The music on that Sky Soap ident was so 90s it made me literally shout "JOHN MAYJAAAAAR" at the top of my voice.

You ok Jon, really enjoyed this series ....you coming back?

I had a tv with pong built in around 1999

The 1990s graphics from the Sci-Fi Channel in the US always freaked me out, which I had watched them through commercial breaks and bumper compilations posted on YT, as well as the 2011 Science Channel US graphics with that weird black logo nicknamed 'Morph', which I saw with my own eyes on TV. Anyone else get me?

12:05 Giorgio Moroder

12:35 this ident feels like it’s from the 90s

Nickelodeon UK airs Washing Detergent Adverts now? Thanks for the Info Jonny

They Had Edited The Empire State Trailer! 10:31

Edge TV sounds like a bit of a cross between GBNews and what Sky History has become. I reckon if it had launched 10 or 15 years later it would have stood more of a chance, especially with the online aspect, but I'm glad it's gone

36:28 sky-fi

6:39 Spongebob Cameo

If u ever watched ksw (polish wwe) they keep switching from via play to canal +

given rise didn’t last it’s ironic that on the last big breakfast friday song one verse ended- to whoever fills this slot we say give it all you’ve got but we bet you won’t be here in ten years time. self fulfilling prophecy

2:00: were the audience really ‘dropping off’ .?

24:05 you were well over 10 minutes at that point why did you feel you need this?

In 2023 TCM Movies or TCM Classic Hollywood UK, is Closed, but TCM Turner Classic Movies is still here in the US

Any news on new videos?

The new version was bloody awful that was not the proper big breakfast they no opening long full big breakfast theme tune and intro yeah it was two loud and just wanted to mute the tv the presenters where so annoying and two political correct with the whole all black hosts i know why they did it the first time because black history month by but why did they carry on with that when they did full the series it should've been white and black presenters.

Best breakfast show ever ❤

Only a minute in and had to drop a comment on the programme Zzzap. I was only 10 when it first came out, but it felt like one big acid trip!! Other shows i loved were Harry's Mad, Knightmare, Dreamstone, Count Duckula, Funhouse, Art Attack, talespin, sooty and how 2. We were certainly blessed with these shows!

I'm fairly certain the voice at 17:13 is that of the hologram who reads the news on groovy funky Channel 27!

Wow I remember this in the early days of TCC or The Childrens Channel as it was called back then but only ever been able to find the French version.

You forgot Nynex

The other one is better - less boring

The Big Breakfast was a fairly volatile format channel 4 seemed to grapple with on/off during it's 9 year run. After Chris left it floundered, they tried a number of rejiggs but could never really recapture the magic by design alone.. The initial relaunch removed all of the quirky distinguishing contrasting elements which made it attractive to audiences over rivals.. The Johnny Vaughn and Denise Van Outen pairing which put the bb back on track was a complete fluke though. Denise was hired as the roving weather girl originally during the Rick and Sharon era. Sharon left, Denise was co-opted in to present with one of the Richards. One of the aforementioned went on holiday. Johnny Vaughn was brought in as a temporary standin they only intended to use for a week.. It was a complete accident they struck upon the pairing which ultimately reinvigorated the show. Then Denise and Johnny dynamic soured a year or so into the pairing after Johnny went behind Denise's back during contract renegotiations (Vaughn was daft tbh. The show was countenanced on the back of their chemistry. ) Channel 4 probably attempted to devise a format that could withstand the rigors of onscreen personality changes. RI:SE was a bit too clinical and sterile. Never really attracted the interest or investment of audiences..

ITV's declining quality is visible even as a non-brit fan. Alongside with BBC, Channel 4 has definitely become the hub for great dramas and comedy in the UK. C4 has been like that for a while (Allowing Wallace and Gromit series to begin there),but still unlike ITV, they believe in young talent like Lisa McGee (Derry Girls) and Phoebe Waller-Bridge (Crashing)! ITV should reintroduce their local production hubs with its identity as an 2 year experiment or something and see how it takes them!!!
