Tacolneston went to TCJ at 2:08:10. I'm sorry, but all the fun's gone out of it since they stopped switching to RBS in vision - the moment when you saw pristine TCJ go to the RBS version.

One other thing about Ceefax (yeah "VG Broadcast" is turquoise for me too, and the clock is in 0226:17 form) - it's scrolling through every page when you type a number, rather than just the 100 that contains the number you typed.

This is how it looks from Watham at the moment (2:25)

My TV card isn't as good as the tuner in my TV so it probably looks a bit noisier than it probably should do (Ignoring that its RBS)

Just got a jump. Not sure, but I think the picture is a little cleaner.

It does indeed look better now - I think it's shifted back a bit to the right, ghosting has reduced, overall it's cleaner.
