Channel 4 is fined £1.5m by Ofcom


Channel Four has been fined £1.5m by media watchdog Ofcom for misconduct involving phone-in competitions on Richard and Judy and Deal or No Deal.
Viewers were urged to call a premium number after contestants had already been chosen on Richard and Judy.

Eckoh UK, the company which ran Richard and Judy's You Say, We Pay phone-in, has already been fined £150,000. [click heading for more]
