This news about The Crystal Maze and the Krypton Factor has made my year. I will now - officially - fail my entire degree through the absence of any work whatsoever...it is bad enough with a Freeview box, without having the gorgeous Richard O'Brien distracting me...!

Thanks SO much for the info! :)

According to my TV guide the first show on FTN will be at 6pm on Monday 1st January 2007. It will then be at 2am and 6pm daily.

I'm assuming the 2am one is a repeat of the earlier 6pm one, right?

Not sure, the TV guide just lists the name of the show, and unfortunately I'm not back from work by 6pm and am in bed by 2am so I rarely catch one, let alone both! I would presume so though.

Apologies, it now appears the 2am show has been dropped in favour of "Vegas Virgins". The show is still on 6pm Monday - Friday.

Well, Crystal Maze fans, panic not as it returns to Ftn next week at 7.00 after Takeshi's Castle.

My whole life just flashed before my eyes. It was really boring

Why the hell they are moving it around I don't know though. Damn annoying.
