Heads up in the digital milieu #1: 25 October 2006

[The first in a semi-recurring series of good things spotted in the little minutiae of British multichannel TV listings, inspired by spotting an interesting for-cinema documentary on a digital channel soon after release…]

  • KZ“, a documentary about Mauthausen concentration camp and the townspeople Then and Now, has recently done the art cinema rounds and is already on TV: More4 9:00pm (+1 10:00pm).
  • The first two episodes of “Torchwood” air on terrestrial; I saw it on BBC3 and didn’t actually mind it, it looks promising and is at least interesting: BBC2 9:00pm.
  • Channel Four are having an early Halloween – “Misery” followed by Carpenter’s “The Fog“: Channel 4 11:10pm/Thu 1:10am.

With over 100 channels on Telewest Essential, this had better become a regular occurrence.
