BBC Three's New Secret Schedule.



TV BBC Three isn't closing.  Sort of.  Well of course sort of. It's going online.

Except, as mentioned at a516Digital, EPGs show that Freeview broadcasts of actual programmes are continuing between 2am and 4am in the morning from tomorrow night, my guess is because of an iPlayer requirements in relation the BBC Trust, the televisual equivalent of parliamentary trains or ghost trains. Who fans will remember this sort of thing from when podcast commentaries for new were broadcast on BBC7 also in the middle of the night (could also be a Sky EPG thing).

And so, for fun, here's BBC Three's secret schedule for the coming weeks.
