Rumour: UKTV on the move on Freeview from January 6th.
Paramount has sold Smithsonian EPG slot on Freeview (Channel 57) to UKTV for Dave ja vu to move from Freeview Channel 74 on January 5th. [1]
When watching Dave ja vu the on-screen message appeared saying you will have to retune on that date. [2]
If Paramount has also given UKTV it broadcasting slot we may see YESTERDAY +1 going full time on Freeview.

Where do UKTV broadcast on Freeview right now;
SDN/COM4:
*Dave ja vu
*Drama
COM5:
*Dave
*Drama +1
*Yesterday +1 (5am - 7am)
*Smithsonian slot (7am - 3am) - New slot from Jan. 5th?
COM6:
*W
*Yesterday
UKTV are telling viewers to retune to carry on viewing Dave ja vu from Jan. 5th - what may happen (here is my own view):
*YESTERDAY may move to Dave ja vu slot on COM4.
*Dave may start using Smithsonian slot - it works broadcast wise.
*W may move to Dave COM5 slot.
*Dave Ja Vu may start using W slot on COM6.
*Yesterday +1 may start using Yesterday slot on COM6.
