    A first sight of the new French government-backed news channel, France 24, as posted on YouTube. (You did just say ‘vingt quatre’ rather than ‘twenty four’, didn’t you?) Judging by this promo, they didn’t spend much of their budget on things like verbs or punctuation. Launch date TBC.

      France 24 is set to launch online on December 6 with it hitting TV screens 48 hours later.
      It is going to be available on the basic Sky package, not sure about cable availability yet.
      All the best
