Bingo. And does the "1" at the end mean we can expect "True Movies 2" soon?

The two new channels will mean MCA has more room for even more repeats

"Crap programming" is subjective.

Possibly, but atleast at R5, the price will match the actual value of the of the crap DSTV plays.

True Movies 1 on channel 138 - I can see a channel reshuffle coming!

More channels gives you a better change of finding something that's worth watching

How is this a "new channel"? They already own the rights to screen these movies. All they did was take the existing catalogue and fish out any movies remotely related to true events and place them on a dedicated channel.

What next? A channel called "Adam Sandler Movies 1"?

New channel number, showing content concurrently to other channels.
Sounds like a new channel to me

Exactly! Made-for-tv-movies. Only aimed at 60year + housewifes.
