Dotun Adebayo and Carrol Thompson to launch Black British TV station Colourtelly

It will initially be internet based then once they get 10,000 subscribers they will try to broadcast the channel on sky tv.

There is an article on this in the New Nation

If there are no music videos and some decent documentaries I will support it. Thanks for the link.

I hope the station isnt anything like the website..It looks like a broke down myspace page.

Because he is an IDIOT!! I bought Pride magazine for the first time last week and he has an article in there. Its the most pathetic drivel I've ever read. My brothers (aged 11 and 9) could write rings around him. He buys into every stereotype about Black people and masquerades as a serious journalist.

Having this guy involved in the first "Black British" TV channel is very depressing.

Its a Black TV channel though and not just about him remember!!
Always had some sort of respect for Dotun during his time at Voice but that has since taken a dip.True Tupelo_Honey the comments in the Pride equates to 'You black women this is us negative and all get with it without nagging'.As if being a multiple baby father and having numerous partners is some sort of accomplishment with HIV,all those diseases and bi-curious people out there you would think there would be a moral at the end of his rantings .Not to mention the fatherless kids looking up to gangs for missing out on not bonding with their fathers.Give it to the man he does try to regal us with those tales from the barber shop which is well just juvenile.
I think he was one of those who had an opportunity when there weren't many black media personalities around but the game has changed and he hasn't .
