I'm having trouble watching video clips. What can I do?
The Channel 4 Video Player should work on most Windows and Apple Mac machines..

The Video Player is designed for a high-speed internet connection capable of streaming at a minimum of 512kbps. Cookies should also be enabled, which means setting Internet Explorer security to 'medium'.

We cannot, however, guarantee it will work on all set-ups.

If you continue to have problems email dot4@channel4.co.uk

...and where does Jon Snow get his ties from?

Jon gets those ties from Victoria Richards.

He's not the only one to have his ties sought after, though; Krishnan gets requests about his attire too.
