Leonardo is operated by an italian group called 'Sitcom' that supplies Alice, Marco Polo (a travel channel), Leonardo and Nuvolari (a motoring channel) to Sky Italia. We used to have Alice and Leonardo as separate services on TARBS; Alice was dropped by TARBS last year, and up until last week there was only Leonardo that was carried by TARBS.<br />From my reading the 'Sitcom' website,it seems Sitcom are going to supply the 'best' (?) of their programming from each of their 4 services under the one composite channel (I'm assuming only for international audiences) under the name of Leonardo World. <br />What you may have seen on Leo (when it was on air) is just some cross-promotion for their other services meant for italian audiences (as well as some interesting ads for other SKY Italia services), as it is a live feed from italy.<br />I'm fairly certain that I also read that it is scheduled to commence on 1 July. I dont think TARBS have much say on the content.<br />Hope that helps - I haven't bothered asking TARBS as I would probably find out more useful information on my own. They haven't even bothered telling their italian subscribers anything (no surprises there)- the Leo service just went off the air without warning early last week and replaced by that test card advising that Leo World is 'coming soon', yet the EPG is still active for this channel - (They're a real worry sometimes)
