But it's not the freeview Partyland that's being axed. It's the Sky show that's being axed, so my comment concerning the channel going off air having offered half price calls is correct.

Charging freeview callers the full price makes sense by the way, as there are not many babe channels on freeview compared to Sky, so no need to discount the price to fight the competition.

They had it on the black box in the corner that it was partyland on freeview last show and then later had it saying it was partyland on sky's last show

Also babestation on Facebook has confirmed this evening that Partyland has finished

A few have asked what they will be doing tonight, if it will be just 3 channels, but no reply from babestation, anyway we will find out in 90 minutes time

Exactly - my point was that the half price deal for Sky was an indicator that they were getting very few calls compared with Freeview.

Yes, but only people who visit this forum would know that and even for us that option will now no longer be available.

OK so it looks as though it's finished on freeview as well, which means a freeview slot is available....

They said last night that it was definitely continuing on Freeview.

No I doubt that. They have always had a half price channel on Sky, or at least for the 4 years I've had Sky anyway. There's always been one 75p channel. It's nothing new and certainly nothing to do with having shows on freeview too these days.

So is it continuing on Freeview;I thought it would finish soon as its so tame and the graphics are HUGE!
By the way whats happened to ModSta he was always so helpful to us;has he moved on or have we frightened him off? Also any news about poor Toya at all;I really feel sorry for her.

So you think one of the other Sky channels will now have its price halved?

Besides, there must be some reason for it - an outfit like Cellcast doesn't offer half price without a very good reason.

Btw, which was the half price channel before PL launched last year?

Partygirls did 75p hours from time to time
