Axing of 119 and 123 completely unacceptable

I was most distressed to discover that DSTV have discontinued channels 119 and 123. Particularly 119. What were they thinking?! Such high-handedness to deprive viewers of their favourite serials without warning! DSTV's very expensive premium subscription can only be justified by access to the best entertainment, of which the BBC is an important source, so this gives many of us a good reason to seek our jollies elsewhere.

Reviewer Update
Thank you, but the other BBC channels you mention are not comparable with BBC Entertainment, either because they have a different profile (news, documentary, lifestyle) or because their content, like BBC Brit, has a more down market appeal.
I repeat what I said in my first post: the high cost of your premium subscription can only be justified if premium channels like 119 are part of it.
