I REFER to the letter, 'MediaCorp should consider re-screening movie as ending was not televised' (Online Forum, Jan 17) by Miss Wee Wei Ling and thank her for her feedback.
The movie, Wes Craven's thriller They, was aired on Jan 10 at 10pm. A technical glitch during the telecast caused the opening segment of the movie to be repeated in place of the closing. As a result, the conclusion of the movie was not aired.
As soon as the cause of the problem was identified, a crawler was run during the following programme to inform viewers that the movie will be repeated in its entirety soon.
Channel 5 is pleased to inform viewers that the thriller will be aired tonight at 11pm. Programme trailers have been run to keep viewers duly informed.
We sincerely apologise for the frustration that viewers had to endure as a result of the unforeseen technical glitch during our telecast last week.
We thank viewers for their feedback and hope that they will continue to enjoy programmes on Channel 5.
