It seems a bit disjointed, leaving out Alibi, Gold & Eden. The U& "you and" names are probably going to get tiresome after a while.

That's assuming that the rebrand lasts that long. UKTV has a track record of quietly dropping some of their rebrands.

UKTV will on the relevant channels, the public will do what they always do and carry on using the old, familiar, names. That's until UKTV get bored of the names, as they did with UK Gold, UKTV Gold, "Go on laugh daily" G.O.L.D etc.
