Up until border TV started, did Granada cover much of Cumbria?


Cumbria didn't even exist until 1973 I think?

However no, Winter Hill just about reaches the south of Cumbria on UHF, it didn't penitrate much further on VHF, too many mountains

Of course, prior to 1974, there was Cumberland, and Westmorland.

This is a 1996 bulletin, and it is clearly done from the Albert Dock. We know this, as the last item is about the Liverpool Model Railway Show, and the presenter says "being held right here at the Albert Dock"

The Sport Thread

With RTE seemingly involved in the Pro 14, and with increased BBC involvement again, I just wonder if Premier Sports reduced role, is simply them perhaps eventually deciding to say to the Pro 14, in a few years time, "well, goodbye", and deciding to leave it altogether.

Mike Neville has died

He was forthright, and professional. He took the news seriously.
