England will soon have a TV station targeting The 50+ Market:
Hosts on Vintage TV (who will include Paul Gambaccini, Debbie Harry and Rick Wakeman) will serve up a variety of music, films and shows.

In France they’ve had something like that for a few years – although it’s more today than yesterday:

It would be interesting to find out how Vintage TV might fare on this side of the pond. Cable outfits and smart media execs - keep an eye on it.
As usual, more from Dick Stroud.
