ITV4 is a British television station which launched on 1 November 2005. It is owned by ITV Digital Channels Ltd, a division of ITV plc, and is part of the ITV network. The channel has a male-oriented line-up, including sport, cop shows and US comedies and dramas, as well as classic ITV action series of the 1960s and '70s. ITV4 is broadcast on Freeview, digital cable, IPTV and satellite television.

History

It was expected that ITV4 would replace the existing Men & Motors channel in the same way Granada Plus was rebranded into ITV3, until ITV plc stated that the two channels would run alongside each other, forcing the ITV News Channel on Freeview to timeshare with ITV4. ITV replaced the failing News Channel with CITV. Both channels were on Freeview until ITV plc took Men & Motors off Freeview (although it remained on other platforms for some time until April 2010) and replaced it with the live quiz channel ITV Play. Some programming from Men & Motors were transferred to ITV4. ITV4 was the first channel to launch the new on-screen look that rolled out across the rest of ITV plc's channels on 16 January 2006. Red Bee Media designed the new logos and presentation for the entire corporation that saw the end of the yellow and blue squared look designed for ITV1, ITV2 and the cube look for ITV3. An ITV annual report revealed that an old style logo was designed for the channel but was never used on air.

Launch

ITV4's launch night aired on Freeview channel 30. Although it was broadcast on the Astra 2D satellite used by Sky, so users could manually tune it in, it launched on Sky channel 120, after ITV2 and ITV3 in the listings, on 7 November. Prior to this date, some sporting content was simulcast on Men & Motors in an ITV4 on M&M; strand.

ITV4+1

It was announced in late October 2008 that ITV4 would get a +1 channel by the end of 2008. ITV4+1 launched on Sky on 1 December 2008 and on Freesat on 9 December 2008. The timeshift channel arrived on Virgin Media on 25 March 2010. It was removed from Sky on 11 January 2011, due to the launch of ITV1+1 taking up space on the EPG. Sky viewers will need to tune the channel in manually, using 'other channels' if they still want it. The channel continues to be available on Freesat and Virgin Media.

ITV4 HD

A high-definition simulcast of ITV4, ITV4 HD, launched on 15 November 2010 on Sky. The channel is available through Sky's pay subscription but ITV is in talks with other providers including Virgin Media. ITV4 HD's high definition content includes premium sports events such as the British Touring Car Championship, , 2010-11 Ashes Series, Tour de France, Grand Slam of Darts and UEFA Europa League, as well as films.

Freeview

As Freeview announced plans for a retune on 30 September 2009, ITV4 moved to an alternative multiplex. Viewers in areas that have completed switchover who receive their signal from a local relay transmitter and receive 'Freeview Lite', are no longer able to receive ITV4.

Live coverage, produced by ITV Sport, will be presented by Matt Smith alongside Bollywood actress and presenter Mandira Bedi, who hosted Cricket World Cup coverage in India.

Announcing the deal, ITV’s Director of Digital Channels and Acquisitions, Zai Bennett said: “In only two years, the Indian Premier League has already established itself as one of the world’s most high profile and exciting sports events which attracts some of the very best cricketers from around the globe. It’s an exciting acquisition for one of the UK’s fastest growing digital channels and we’re delighted to be able to offer the whole tournament free-to-air to our viewers.”

Lalit Modi, Chairman and Commissioner of the IPL said: “This is a hugely significant deal for the IPL. It is a truly global competition unlike any other, ideally suited to the British passion for both cricket and entertainment. As such, we are delighted that ITV have recognised the game’s appeal and that the glorious spectacle of every game will be available in full, free to air, throughout the UK.”

Xuasus is the pseudonym of Spanish comicbook artist Juan Jesus Garcia (Mieres, 1968).

Biography

Xuasus' chunky, fully-painted style was admired by David Bishop, editor of the Judge Dredd Megazine, in the early 1990s, and the artist was commissioned to work on a number of well-known characters, including Judge Dredd, Judge Anderson, Judge Hershey and the Brit-Cit Brute. Xuasus has also contributed to the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and Victor titles.

His latest contribution is the "Waccy Baccy Races" series for the magazine Wasted in collaboration with Alan Grant. He now combines his work in comics with film projects.

His most recent work is as a matte painter of the cities of Jerusalem and the Castle of Kerak on Kingdom of Heaven. He also created the virtual Waterfall City for Dinotopia and was a matte painter on Troy, Rome and Harry Potter II. Rumours have persisted of him being 'difficult' to work with and there have been accusations of him passing off other peoples work as his own and not recognising a team effort in taking credit on film projects. He now works in Canada as a matte painter.

Jean-Claude Camille François Van Varenberg (born 18 October 1960), professionally known as Jean-Claude Van Damme (French pronunciation: [ʒɑ̃ klod vɑ̃ dam]), is a Belgian martial artist and actor.

At the age of 16 he took up ballet, which he studied for five years. According to Van Damme, ballet "is an art, but it's also one of the most difficult sports. If you can survive a ballet workout, you can survive a workout in any other sport." A turning point in his health issues came in late 1997, after having signed divorce papers charging him with spousal abuse, and drug addiction.

After the filming of the 1998 film Knock Off, Van Damme was diagnosed with rapid cycling bipolar disorder after becoming suicidal and started treatment on the bi-polar medication sodium valproate to stabilize his mood. He also went through drug rehab a second time and successfully came clean in time to do other movies, along with made for video/cable movies.

At the age of 12, Van Damme joined the Centre National De Karate (National Center of Karate) under the guidance of Claude Goetz in France. Van Damme trained for four years and he earned a spot in the Belgian Karate Team.

He made his debut in 1976, at the age of 16. However, Jean-Claude climbed off the canvas and with a perfectly timed ax-kick, knocked Bergman out cold in 59 seconds of the first round. Van Damme ended 1979 with a stoppage of Gilberto (Gil) Diaz in one round. |align='left'|TKO |align='left'|March 1980 | style="text-align:center;"|2 | style="text-align:center;"| |align='left'|European Professional Karate Association | |Won the European Karate Association's middleweight championship. |align='left'|KO (axe kick) |align='left'|November 1979 | style="text-align:center;"|1 | style="text-align:center;"|0:59 |align='left'|WAKO World Full-Contact Championships |Tampa, Florida, USA |Tournament quarter-final bout. |- | style="text-align:center;" Win | style="text-align:center;"|10-1 |align='left'| Rolf Risberg |align='left'|KO |align='left'|1979 | style="text-align:center;"|1 | style="text-align:center;"| |align='left'|World-All Styles Karate Organization |Ingelmunster, Belgium | |- | style="text-align:center;" Win | style="text-align:center;"|9-1 |align='left'| Jacques Piniarski |align='left'|KO |align='left'|1979 | style="text-align:center;"|1 | style="text-align:center;"| |align='left'|World-All Styles Karate Organization |Opprebais, Belgium | |- | style="text-align:center;" Win | style="text-align:center;"|8-1 |align='left'| Andre Robaeys |align='left'|KO |align='left'|1979 | style="text-align:center;"|1 | style="text-align:center;"| |align='left'|World-All Styles Karate Organization |Mulhouse, Belgium | |- | style="text-align:center;" Win | style="text-align:center;"|7-1 |align='left'| Cyrille Nollet |align='left'|TKO |align='left'|1978 | style="text-align:center;"|1 | style="text-align:center;"| |align='left'|World-All Styles Karate Organization |Iseghem, Belgium | |- | style="text-align:center;" Win | style="text-align:center;"|6-1 |align='left'| Emile Leibman |align='left'|KO |align='left'|1978 | style="text-align:center;"|1 | style="text-align:center;"| |align='left'|World-All Styles Karate Organization |Iseghem, Belgium | |- | style="text-align:center;" Win | style="text-align:center;"|5-1 |align='left'| Orlando Lang |align='left'|TKO |align='left'|1978 | style="text-align:center;"|1 | style="text-align:center;"|0:12 |align='left'|European Karate Union |Antwerp, Belgium |Tournament final bout. |- | style="text-align:center;" Win | style="text-align:center;"|4-1 |align='left'| Michel Juvillier |align='left'|KO |align='left'|1978 | style="text-align:center;"|1 | style="text-align:center;"|0:39 |align='left'|European Karate Union |Antwerp, Belgium |Tournament semi-final bout. |- | style="text-align:center;" Win | style="text-align:center;"|3-1 |align='left'| Eric Bruno Strauss |align='left'|KO |align='left'|1978 | style="text-align:center;"|1 | style="text-align:center;"|0:18 |align='left'|European Karate Union |Antwerp, Belgium |Tournament quarter-final bout. |- | style="text-align:center;" Loss | style="text-align:center;"|2-1 |align='left'| Patrick Teugels |align='left'|Decision |align='left'|1977 | style="text-align:center;"| | style="text-align:center;"| |align='left'| WAKO Open International |Iseghem, Belgium | |- | style="text-align:center;" Win | style="text-align:center;"|2-0 |align='left'| Maurice Devos |align='left'|TKO |align='left'|1977 | style="text-align:center;"|1 | style="text-align:center;"| |align='left'|Netherlands Kickboxing Federation |Antwerp, Belgium | |- | style="text-align:center;" Win | style="text-align:center;"|1-0 |align='left'| Toon Van Oostrum |align='left'|KO |align='left'|1976 | style="text-align:center;"|1 | style="text-align:center;"|0:46 |align='left'|European Karate Union |Brussels, Belgium | |- |}

Andrew "Freddie" Flintoff, MBE, (born 6 December 1977 in Preston, Lancashire) is a former English cricketer who played for Lancashire County Cricket Club, England and the Indian Premier League team Chennai Super Kings. A tall (6' 4") fast bowler, batsman and slip fielder, Flintoff according to the ICC rankings was consistently rated amongst the top international allrounders in both ODI and Test cricket. His nickname "Freddie" or "Fred" comes from the similarity between his surname and that of Fred Flintstone, and was first used in the press as a quip because of the issues he had with his weight when he first emerged onto the scene.

From his debut in 1998, Flintoff became an integral player for England, and has both captained and vice-captained the team. However, he suffered regular injuries throughout his international career, often due to his heavy frame and bowling action. During the period 2007–09 he played in only 13 of England's 36 Test matches, but nevertheless remained a core member of the England squad, being selected whenever available. On 15 July 2009 he announced his retirement from Test cricket at the conclusion of the 2009 Ashes series, on 24 August, but made himself available for future commitments in One Day International and Twenty20 International matches.

It was reported on 7 September 2009 that Flintoff has developed deep vein thrombosis after surgery to his knee.

On 15 July 2009, Flintoff announced he would retire from Test cricket at the end of the 2009 Ashes Series.

Individual records and achievements

Flintoff is the second highest English wicket-taker in one-day international cricket with 159 wickets, and the 10th highest in Test cricket, with 218 wickets. These figures include wickets taken for the ICC World XI.

He is also the 9th highest English run-scorer in one-day internationals, with a total of 2975.

Flintoff hit Surrey's Alex Tudor for 34 runs (6–4–4–4–4–6–6–0) in an over at Old Trafford in 1998. The over included two no-balls that, under ECB regulations, counted for two penalty runs apiece, making a grand total of 38.

The highest score of his career at any level is 232 not out for St Anne's (Under 15) Cricket Club against Fulwood and Broughton. He recalls that "it was a 20-overs-a-side game, played on an artificial wicket, and I remember getting dropped when I'd scored just six. My opening partner David Fielding scored 60 not out and we got 319 for 0 in 20 overs. You don't forget days like that, whatever the standard you're playing in".

Flintoff was Lancashire's winner of the NBC Denis Compton Award in 1997.

Flintoff holds the record for the most sixes scored for England, beating Ian Botham's record of 67 with a six off India's Piyush Chawla in Mohali on 11 March 2006.

Flintoff is only the seventh player to have batted on all five days of a Test match, achieving this feat at Mohali, in the same match in which he broke the sixes record.

Media career

In March 2010, Flintoff became a team captain on the Sky1 television sports panel show A League of Their Own, hosted by James Corden. In December 2010, Flintoff became a guest commentator during a few matches in the 2011 PDC World Darts Championship event.

In popular culture

He appears on the cover of the English version of EA Sports' video games Cricket 2005 and Cricket 07.

Flintoff was joint winner of the Beard Liberation Front's Beard of the Year award in 2004 with NATFHE union leader Paul Mackney and then won again in 2005.

Autobiographies

He has written several books: Being Freddie, Freddie, and Andrew Flintoff, My Life in Pictures.

Family

He married Rachael Wools on 5 March 2005 at the 30 Pavilion Road Hotel in Knightsbridge, London. They have three children: a daughter, Holly (born 6 September 2004); and two sons – Corey (born 9 March 2006), and Rocky (born 7 April 2008). He has the names Rachael, Holly, Corey and Rocky tattooed on his left shoulder.

Andrew's father, Colin, and his brother, Chris, both played cricket, with Colin still playing for Whittingham Cricket Club near Preston. During his innings of 167 against the West Indies at Edgbaston in July 2004, one six off Jermaine Lawson was hit high into the Ryder Stand and was almost caught by his father, who fumbled the ball and dropped it. Colin Flintoff remarked "If I'd taken it he'd have been the first Test batsman to be caught out by his dad!"

Indian Premier League

Flintoff was the most expensive player at the IPL auctions after the Chennai Super Kings brought him for a massive 1.55 million USD. This also made him the highest-paid cricketer ever in any cricket tournament. However, he wasn't able to deliver for the Super Kings due to an elbow injury he picked up during the first quarter of the season. Super Kings have sought the services of Justin Kemp from South Africa to make up for his absence.
