Angry Fox to close on VM & Sky on 30th June 2021

In their greed, Disney are removing Fox from VM and Sky at the end of the month and shifting to their premium pay channel.

I cannot justify paying for yet another channel to watch a handful of programs.

So I will have to find alternate ways to watch Wotw season2 and NCIS season 19.


The thing is NCIS is a CBS show, so are they a part of Fox/Disney?

Why not watch some quality British drama I instead? Think you'll find the 'BBC sub' a lot cheaper.

I have seen every episode of NCIS, I watched it with my late mother. So Disney have robbed many by putting it on their pay channel, something many cannot afford to do

My 87 year old Mother will be gutted, she's obssessed by NCIS for some reason. Maybe I'll put her Bergerac boxset on, and hope she doesn't notice the difference.

And there seem to be rumours that National Geographic could also be closed down, after neatly 25 years on air.
