Two more channels on Sky

From today, Wednesday 20 November, two more channels start transmitting on Sky digital.
Channel 991 is 'XXX TV' and 992 is 'Amateur Babes'.
Undoubtedly both will be soft so the XXX will be misleading.
Amateur Babes is described as 100% British to keep on topic.
On air 10pm to 5.30am. Freeviews at 10pm and midnight.
Anyone know anything more about them?
Slipping on my Consumers Champion hat; repeats continue everywhere and the situation seems to be getting worse in this respect.
Tantalise had the same Viewer's Wives three nights running awhile ago - is this normal? Their so called features are very old, some at least ten years so in my opinion. Made in the days when rigid inflated breasts and big blonde hair were the norm. Glimpses of pubic hair are rare never mind anything else. And an incredible amount of ads; always the same ones over and over again.
The Red Hot channels don't seem to have had any fresh material for yonks. Repeats Rule OK! Trailers are shown in their freeviews slots but the films themselves never appear.
To the perennial question; which is the best? They are all very similar in content. With TVX you are locked into a year's sub (and that is sufficient reason to leave it alone) but with TAC you can leave when you want to. Try one or two individual nights viewing before subscribing is what I suggest.

Yes, all very interesting, I'm sure. 100% softcore and all that, but it doesn't answer a very serious question: when does Buffy come back to Sky One?
