Entertainment TV channel to target under-35s

A NEW national television station is promising pure entertainment - with no sports, news or children’s programmes.

The planned formula for success of Channel 6 is a mix of music, movies, drama and comedy, alongside a range of home-grown shows, when it goes live at the end of the month.

Station founder and director Michael Murphy suggested kids, sports fans and news junkies will have to look elsewhere for their TV fix.
