Hi, everyone !!
After a slight dip in the number of new channels last week, compared to an even more massive list of apps from the seven day period prior to that, I'm pleased to say that things appear to be "on the up" again as we've had ANOTHER MAMMOTH CROP OF NEW CHANNEL RELEASES to further boost the UK Channel Store total. To wit, ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTEEN NEW ROKU APPS have been added to the already vast selection of over seven thousand apps which populated the Roku Channel Store as of this time last week. That means we've now been blessed with over two thousand one hundred new apps, in a period of only twenty-three weeks, any of which UK Roku owners can add to the selection of apps that are installed on their device(s). As if that wasn't enough... there are also several items of streaming-related news for me to report on but, unfortunately, I will (once more) need to postpone my summary of all the Roku (and other) news from the past seven days until I can find time to catch-up with everything and add the "missing" details to this post - because, right now, I must instead focus on listing all of those one hundred plus new Roku apps for you! ;-) :-)
Before I get into the current list of channels, however, I would just like to point-out that the ongoing issue of "missing" reviews from the 'Roku Guide' website appears to have worsened (yet again) since my previous article on this blog. Over the last twenty-three weeks, my 'Weekly RoundUp' posts have seen a total of 2,158 new channels added. Meanwhile, the number of 'Roku Guide' reviews being published has continued to fall short of the mark during that time. Looking at all of the articles they have published since the start of the year, there has been a total of only 626 new reviews added to their website. With a minimum of around another ninety "missing" reviews from the last week they remain more than seventy percent short of where they should be and, if this continues, there could be hundreds (if not thousands) more Roku channels with no corresponding independent review for me to provide a link from each of the relevant 'Weekly RoundUp' posts on my blog. I hope this shortfall is addressed soon because, as mentioned nineteen weeks ago, the current situation isn't good for anyone connected to Roku: be they end-users, developers, bloggers like myself, or even Roku - whose platform provides the very source from which 'Roku Guide' generate their reviews! :-O
Still, back to the list... which, as always, will help you to identify the very latest apps that have been added to Roku devices in the UK. Other websites offering Roku channel listings will base their contents on the Roku USA Channel Store, which means they also include apps that are unavailable to UK Roku users. So, like I've said before... if you really want to know what's available channel-wise, for owners of Roku devices in the UK, you need to be reading this blog each and every week! ;-) :-)
With twice the number of active links to check out, not just for this week... but each and every post that has been previously published as part of my 'Weekly RoundUp' series over the last six and one quarter years, there's a *lot* to catch-up on. So, without further ado, here's my 'Weekly RoundUp' of all the new Roku channels released between 2nd June 2019 and 8th June 2019:-
STREAM WITH PRIDE..........................................................COST: FREE [Roku Guide Review]
***FILED UNDER: "THEMES" in the Roku UK Channel Store WHEN FIRST RELEASED***
PLEASE NOTE:- That, as 'Stream With Pride' was previously added to the Roku USA Channel Store on 30th May 2019 and has only just been extended to the United Kingdom, you will not find this new Roku theme among the latest additions in the 'Just Added' category of the Roku UK Channel Store. If you wish to celebrate 'Pride Month' by adding a suitably themed background to the 'Home Screen' of your Roku device(s) you will instead need to look within the 'Themes' category of the channel store to find and install the 'Stream With Pride' theme (aka wallpaper) from where it can then be previewed and/or set as your current background theme. Of course, if you do not wish to trawl through the list of forty-six themes listed within the channel store, you can always take advantage of the built-in Roku 'Search' feature to look for "Stream With Pride" by name and narrow down the results to locate and install it that way. TIP: If you download the FREE ROKU MOBILE APP for either the iOS (Apple) or Android platform(s) you can then use the touch-screen keyboard of your mobile device(s) to enter the search text. In my experience, this is far quicker than picking-out one letter at a time when using the (supplied) hardware Roku remote with the on-screen keyboard displayed on your TV! ;-) :-)

***FILED UNDER: "SCREENSAVERS" in the Roku UK Channel Store WHEN RELEASED***
PLEASE NOTE:- That, although the channel icon (aka 'HD Poster' image) for this Roku app has the name clearly displayed as "Binkini Babes Screensavers", with a superfluous second letter "n" in front of the "k" as part of the word "Binkini" (sic) in the title, the developer instead used the word "Bikini" (without the superfluous "n" in the word) when entering the app title as "Bikini Babes Screensavers" so (presumably?) the spelling featured on the channel icon is incorrect. Whatever the reason for using "Binkini" instead of "Bikini" when providing a title for the 'HD Poster' image, I thought it best to point-out this peculiarity so as to make clear that the channel name "Bikini Babes Screensavers" is represented here in the format assigned to it by the developer and not as the result of any spelling mistake / grammatical error on my part, regardless of the title shown in the channel icon! ;-) :-)

AMERICAN GRINDHOUSE MOVIES................COST: £1.49 (MONTHLY) [Roku Guide Review]
***N.B. THIS WAS UNCATEGORISED in the Roku UK Channel Store WHEN RELEASED***
PLEASE NOTE:- That, while this 'American Grindhouse Movies' channel for Roku devices can be found within the 'Just Added' category (i.e. genre) of the "Official" Roku UK Channel Store, no permanent category / genre had (at the time of writing) been assigned to this channel in the UK. If I somehow succeed in bringing this matter to the attention of the developer / content provider, I'd expect to see this app given a permanent "home" under 'Film & TV' or 'Special Interest' in the "Official" Roku UK Channel Store within a few weeks of so-doing. In the meantime, if you don't wish to trawl through the 'Just Added' category of the channel store to find it, I suggest you take advantage of the built-in Roku 'Search' feature to locate and install it. Using this method, you probably won't even need to finish typing the words "American Grindhouse" before seeing the channel listed among the 'Search Results' displayed on the right-hand side of your television screen. Failure to assign a permanent channel store category for the UK within the next two weeks (however) would mean that, once it ceases to be part of the 'Just Added' category, it would no longer be listed in the channel store. So, if you think you're likely to want this channel, my advice would be to install it by mid-late June (at the latest) because, if the necessary edits are not made to the Roku channel package (.PKG file) by that time, you will not see it there afterwards. Needless to say, if/when the channel is edited to include a permanent channel store category for the UK, I'll update this listing with details of whatever genre has been assigned to it. As mentioned above I'd expect this to be either the 'Film & TV' or 'Special Interest' genre, but it could (possibly) wind-up in another category.

RETRO AFRIKA PREMIUM...............................COST: £1.49 (MONTHLY) [Roku Guide Review]
***FILED UNDER: "SPECIAL INTEREST" in Roku UK Channel Store WHEN RELEASED***
PLEASE NOTE:- That, in addition to this latest 'Retro Afrika Premium' channel, there is another app called 'Retro Afrika' which is represented by the exact same channel icon (shown above) and listed as part of my 'Roku UK Channel Store - Weekly RoundUp #316' post back in March 2019. Those of you who have not seen that previous 'Weekly RoundUp' article should be aware the official description for that earlier 'Retro Afrika' channel includes a warning to the effect that it "May require additional fees" in order to view certain content. At the time of writing both versions remain available for install so, when adding either one to your Roku account, please be sure to check the description in the Roku Channel Store to ascertain which of them you have selected. Having looked into the matter, I can confirm the unique channel store identifier is different for each channel... which suggests they were intentionally added as individual apps. However, it's not (currently) known if the developer will allow both to remain... or whether one might be removed. Of course, whatever action is taken, I will update this post to reflect any such changes if/when they are made. Until then, it might be best to stick with the earlier free-to-add 'Retro Afrika' channel and avoid the £1.49 PER MONTH subscription! ;-) :-D

PLEASE NOTE:- That 'The Invisible Man' channel (shown above) features "all episodes" of the first TV series (1958-1959) in black & white and not the mid-seventies one, starring David McCallum, that was filmed in colour. Further details about the original series, starring Tim Turner, Lisa Daniely, and Deborah Watling, can be found on 'The Invisible Man' IMDb webpage for those who are curious. If you've not seen this fifties classic, I highly recommend it to fans of vintage science fiction series! ;-) :-)
HAWKEYE & LAST OF THE MOHICANS...............................COST: FREE [Roku Guide Review]
***FILED UNDER: "FILM & TV" in Roku UK Channel Store WHEN FIRST RELEASED***
PLEASE NOTE:- That, although the channel icon (aka 'HD Poster' image) for this Roku app has the name clearly displayed as "Hawkeye and the Last of the Mohicans", with an extra "the" in front of the word "Last" in the title, the developer (instead) chose to use "Hawkeye & Last of the Mohicans" (without an extra "the" in the title) when entering the app title (presumably?) due to restrictions as to the number of characters that can be used for naming a channel. Whatever the reason, I thought it best to point-out this peculiarity to make it clear that the name "Hawkeye & Last of the Mohicans" is represented here in the format assigned to it by the developer and not as the result of any spelling mistake / grammatical error on my part, regardless of the title shown in the channel icon! As for the TV series itself, it is another example of fifties programming. Further details about the show, starring John Hart, Lon Chaney Jr. and Bill Walsh, which first aired on television around 1957, can be found on the 'Hawkeye and the Last of the Mohicans' IMDb webpage for anyone wishing to know more! ;-)
CAPTAIN Z-RO........................................................................COST: FREE [Roku Guide Review]
***FILED UNDER: "FILM & TV" in Roku UK Channel Store WHEN FIRST RELEASED***
PLEASE NOTE:- That, as with the previous entry listed above, this 'Captain Z-Ro' channel is another fifties-era video collection featuring "all available episodes" of a classic television series. This time it is a science fiction TV series from 1955 called "Captain Z-Ro", by Roy Steffens & Friedrich Schiller, which is presented in all it's monochrome glory. Once again, further information about the show can be found on the dedicated 'Captain Z-Ro' IMDb webpage for those who wish to know more! ;-) :-)

PLEASE NOTE:- That, as with the previous two entries listed above, this 'Cowboy G-Men' channel is another fifties-era video collection featuring "all available episodes" of a classic television series. This time it is a western-themed science fiction show, starring Russell Hayden, Jackie Coogan and Phil Arnold, that first aired on television around 1952, which is presented for your enjoyment. As with all of the other series listed previously, further details about this particular vintage TV show can be found on a dedicated 'Cowboy G-Men' IMDb webpage courtesy of the Internet Movie Database! ;-) :-)
