Why are Sky telling people to turn to commercial radio?

And how many times have they mentioned the HD thing, do people really care that news is in HD? I have to admit it looks good though, but have to agree that the "awaiting results" is annoying!

National News on all UK commercial stations, via IRN.

I imagine that these station will be able to take the TV feed for coverage tonight.

ello from somewhere inside TV Centre. Tonight we're providing (at last count) 38 downlinks from SNGs around the UK, as well as distributing the BBC's election night programme to broadcasters around the world.

(And, because there was a quiet spell earlier, as a special treat for control rooms around the world, the international feed will be preceded by the 10 minute BBC Parliament countdown remix from 2001.)

@gottago That's what I was thinking. There is a mute button.

Awaiting results graphics really annoying, and the seats which are obviously going to be 0. Is there many changes to Sky Centre apart from the possible position change for the island? I couldnt see because of the large amount of blank contentless graphics on screen. Look nice though Smile
