Do you mean help you with your spelling and grammar? I almost feel ashamed to be English when I see things like this...

Anyway, rant over. The answer is no, I'm not aware of any that are showing anything other than Pokemon, Dragonball Z and Sonic X Anime smallmouth + sweatdrop

I'm in the US, so I only know about 4 Brit channels, but I'll take this opportunity to plug one of my favorite animes! You probably already know of it, but Hellsing is set in London, and is a great show. It's got its problems, but it's got a neat style and one of the sweetest characters in anime history! Also, they portray and reference actual weapons that are used by MI5 and other British military agencies. This added a unique flavor that I havnt seen in many other series'. Also, you can get the ENTIRE SERIES brand new on DVD for $18 bucks online- that's the real thing, not pirated crap, or bootlegs.

Well, good luck finding some good stuff on TV!!

Yes, but waterboy was asking about NTL and he says he doesn't get Rapture on it

Are you sure you don't get Rapture? Because it's not set to relaunch until the 14th.

I emailed rapture tv and they told me that Ntl denied them because of there not being a free slot.

Well get a Sky+ box then and your problem's solved. Unless you live in a place where you can't hang a dish, then you're stuffed mate. NTL mings anyway Wink

the only half decent anime show on British tv that i no of is Zoids, which is on Sky 1 at 7:30 in the morning (yes, you herd me, 7:30 in the morning).

Gundam Wing and Cowboy Bebop used to be on CNX in the evenings, but now CNX dosent even exist >.<

Since 1977, when the first star wars film was releesed, and Han Solo became (probably) the ffirst ever pirate good guy.

Allthogh i do agree - One Piece is a lode of sh*t
