No - all BBC channels are FTA now.

Are you sure? What is 10th July all about? BBC One Nations are still definitely encrypted.


Talking of BBC One Nations, what do we have to do to get them? Can we tune them in ready now or is it best to wait till the 10th?

Yep, assuming that the regions don't disappear.

Kay Day is here!!! The day that everyone has been waiting for!! But I fear that Kay's abscence recently may mean that any viewers tuning into BBC ONE BM tomorrow may not have much luck and may end up with one of Kay's crew.

Although, I'm sure Kay's recent leave is because she has been preparing for this very day! You MUST tune in anyway, so you can catch all the Midlands news, travel and weather along with the *NEW* at a glance on screen travel and weather system.

depends on whether some pillock in London decides to move the regional news to BBC2, which would be even worse now because you wouldn't get Peter Levy at all, as Belmont can't opt BBC2 independently of Emley

Ah sorry - forgot about that. I just did the 'take the card out of the box and look through all the channels' trick..

I get the dreaded 'FOR YOUR INFORMATION 08 - This programme is not available'.

Bloody welsh postcode.

I thought I'd take a peek at Look North. Nice as it is to see it, the picture doesn't half look wishy-washy after coming from the national newsroom and the fake bars don't help. I guess it's just too expensive to upgrade the regions to widescreen at the moment.

I thought these transmissions were meant to be unwncrypted. Well why do I get the the '08' error message when trying to view one of the regions?

Is it because I have a Welsh postcode, or is it my new Sky card?

I have the new card, and it works fine for me, perhaps its cos you dont get BBC 1 england as default. This will change eventually!
