Whilst looking for information on the Meridian Weather sponsorship deal with SeaFrance recently, I came up with this page. After admiring the pretty pictures, which happen to feature in the Meridian Weather sponsorship sequences, I clicked upon the link to the Meridian Weather online page, to be met with this oddity. I was a little confused, as the address in question has lead me to the proper site in the past, but upon inspection I realised that it was the addition of the final slash that caused this mis-direction. After further experimentation I discovered that the same happens with the angliatv.co.uk, granadatv.co.uk, tyneteestv.co.uk, yorkshiretv.co.uk and border-tv.co.uk domains.

My queries are as follows: Why does this happen, what other crap is lurking on the vast ITV network of disused domains and derelict webspaces, and is there any way to "browse" these webspaces to see what's there?
