Dutch site? Surprised they can receive BBC East out there...

Shame the BBC haven't done this themselves though

Damn, you can't change the region - otherwise my Dad would like that for his non-league football results... I think the BBC should jump on this idea though!

Belgium and Holland have always been able to receive BBC East. In fact, the Belgiun and Dutch viewers are occasionally mentioned on Look East. There are apparantly those who watch regularly.

Really can't see the point in the BBC running this service as suggested. I can't really see any benefit for domestic users. All the data on Ceefax appears on bbc.co.uk anyway which obviously is a lot easier to navigate.

It's a shame the BBC Dont have a Ceefax emulator on their site a number of other broadcasters simulcast their text services via broadcast and the internet.

Four examples ........

Aertel - RTE - Ireland
Teletexto - RTVE - Spain
SwissTxt - SF-DRS - Switzerland
Televideo - RAI - Italy
