  2. how to channel was always a mixed bag and i only ever liked watching the uk home shows anyway. i just hope we don’t get the same series on lifestyle and then repeated on lifestyle home like they seem to with lifestyle food sometimes.

    @Michael Quinn

    Austar is a 50% owner with Foxtel of xyznetworks, so they own half of LifeStyle HOME

    They’ll carry it – it’s just Foxtel put out this press release, not xyz

  4. I wonder what will happen to Martha? Presumably that was one of How To’s drawcards but doesn’t really fit on a property channel. Maybe it will become a 7Two exclusive?
