It just feels like they hate dramas more than all the other genres even though their reality slate is even worse than their dramas.

I find this a really odd decision. They have been airing British dramas that people aren’t interested in yet this one that looks really promising is skipped.

And if they didn’t want to air it why did they invest in it? Clearly management’s got rocks in their head when other British imports get a primetime run whilst local dramas get to run elsewhere first.
That looks odd. Wonder why the addition of a 7:30pm H&A but no 8pm one?
Maybe the ABC would pick this up
To make up for the episode missed on Wednesday.

The Ipcress File
The Ipcress File is a cinematic rollercoaster of twists and turns set in the 1960s amid the highly charged atmosphere of the Cold War as it rages between the West and East.
At the height of the Cold War, ex-soldier and convicted thief Harry Palmer is recruited to an unorthodox British spy unit whose boss, Dalby, wants his help to retrieve a missing scientist. Working alongside cool, ambitious agent Jean, Harry’s journey will take him to the wrong side of Berlin, the risky hedonism of Beirut and the blinding light of a Pacific H-bomb test - before one step too many lands him an unwitting role in a violent political conspiracy.

And this was the once the network that produced more Drama shows than Channels Nine, 10 and the ABC. All they produce now is Home and Away.

Probably viewed it and thought it was a dud or wasn’t the fit they wanted.

The UK Dramas should be left only to BBC First or ABC which would be better suited to them, and Claremont is a new drama production which will replace Around the world in 80 days
Seven should never have aired Downton Abbey. What were they thinking?

These ITV dramas that run for 6 episodes or so seem at odds with what Seven has been saying about programming to attract key demo groups. These get uncompetitive demo numbers even after consolidated viewing.

So pretty much a “Border Security” Special? lol
I think the Novak Saga will be a lot of padding with not much new info of what we already know.

So Supercars will be shown live on 10 during the day and replayed on Seven at late night. Looks like a compromise has been reached.

Loved the novel and original Michael Caine 60s classic feature. Might give this a go.
Will Mike Amor and Bec Madden be making a cameo appearance?
