Points West managed to totally ignore the subject tonight. Perhaps they'll mention it tomorrow.

By saying the start is 9am, I'd guess they're just saying don't expect any local stuff during Breakfast. That gives the techies the window from 9am to 1.30pm to get things working properly, without anyone complaining.


Emails were batting around, and it is up on the website - I think most of the publicity is being saved for when we're actually there!

(BTW, did anyone see the report I voiced on lunch the other week ... hehe ... lucky me!)



did you write it or just voice it?
and - let me guess - was it something techy ?

Or even read THIS thread properly, Mr Spencer, before responding!


Can't help feeling life's a little too short to trawl through 32 pages of a thread before making one post.

Very sorry if I inconvenienced you.

Well I'm not sure if this has been previously mentioned (can't be arsed to check), but the Search and Scan Information has been updated to include the region name in the title. BBC ONE in the East Midlands will be known on the Search and Scan banner as 'BBC 1 E Mids'.
Quite catchy, innit?

With these temporary DOGs I do think the Hull one is trying to break a
record as the longest dog. "BBC ONE East Yorkshire and North Linco-
lnshire", they've even added the word "North" which isn't usually part
of that region's title. In 4:3 it almost stretches across the whole screen!

Good grief! That's more of a PIG than a DOG!

Well, the 'national' BBC 1/2 version vanished just before 9am, and just about 9.10am all the regional versions appeared ... they're all there!! Wahoo!

It was mentioned that we would be able to change the region on 101. Can we do this or not??

Not at the moment. Its a case of popping up to 941ish and making the region you want a favourite. Apparently they are working on this, but it'll be a while before its sorted.

I'd like to know why the hell I've got BBC 1 WEST MIDLANDS on 101, when I quite obviously live in Nottingham. Sort it now, or else!!

I suspect you'll be able to phone up and get it changed like you can with ITV
