According to that great woman on ch.966 we have BBC One Nations between 967-9 but I haven't! Funny as there was talk in here recently we wouldn't be allowed to see it due to additional copyright / viewing that doesn't affect BBC Two Nations as much. What's going on?
Also the woman on ch.999 claims we have that additional feature of the Personal Planner recording all the series of a particular program but I haven't got it!!
The Nations are on 967-969, but are not for the viewing of menial subscribers such as us. Before there were channels in the 200s, you could always see on the channel 998 demonstration that the box they used had 'snr' (Sky News Radio, I think) on channel 202. There are lots of (or 'a few') test channels etc. on the boxes for acutal Sky people.
'I phoned BBC Information about this this evening, as I've been waiting for BBC1 Scotland to appear down here in England for ages. The chap I spoke to told me that the very latest starting date for the BBC1 Nations on these channel numbers is early September, and that there is a chance that it will launch before then.'

I've emailed BBC Info, so it'll be interesting to see if I get a similar reply or not.
so whats the deal Asa, will Sky subscribers get to have their choice of Nations? Did the person at the BBC shed any light on this? This question has kicked about for a while now, and I'm desparate for answers!
I am losing my OnDigital v soon - in fact my subscription lapsed over a month ago and they havent cut me off. I get telewest installed in the next week or so and would love to see the Nation variants too. One would think that it wont be available to telewest at all but my folks have Sky so it might be worth popping round of an evening,
if
the Nations are available to view.
