Channel Five was first launched in 1997


I remember it well. The Spice Girls were still enormous then, and Geri looked filthy :lol:

Oh, and Five gave you billboards and trailers for all these films that they didn't show for months and years later :oops:

*Tangent*

I've got fond memories of 1997, though they may be incorrect :lol: :oops:

Total Film launched and was looked forward to then.

Seen Con Air for a quid on national cinema day - the one and only time an entire cinema crowd loved the film and you could feel it, IME.

A local McD's opened. That was quite important at the age of 15 :lol:

*Tangent*

Channel5 cannot be used as a promotion front for the magazines/newspapers that the guy owns, but the newspapers/magazines can be used to promote Channel5.
That amused me.

I don't give a [LIFTED] about that dead media whore so I couldn't care one way or the other.
