When a TV company signs a contract to show programs I guess you pay so much for each showing.
As ITV shows mainly "new" shows they may have to pay a lot to show them again.
But stations like ITV3 or Gold mainly show old programs or films so it probably costs them very little to show each program twice.
Thats my theory anyway.

good question , i find that the + 1 channels are a godsend when there is sod on all evening except at 9 pm when about 6 channels are all showing stuff i want to watch , so it is a case of juggling ,well i wiill watch this side at 9 on dtv, sky plus the other 2 at 9, then the other 2 at 10 , then this is repeated on wednesday at 1 in the morning so i can sky plus it then , good old living tv even does + 2 which is great as a lot of my shows are on living - perhaps i should get a life ??? i'll get my coat !!!
