Are my eyes playing tricks on me or did I just watch a recorded episode of Nortonland in WIDESCREEN ??? The DOG wasn't in 16:9 format but I wondered why everybody and everything seemed thin in a 4:3 format, and I noticed there wasn't any "semi-letterbox" on the programme.


Must have been a Red Bee/Virgin Media problem, as Dancing with the Stars on UKTV Gold was also suffering the same problem, otherwise like anything else on Virgin Media/UKTV it would be in 14:9.

I can understand it was a "problem" but with a vast majority of Sky/cable viewers viewing on a widescreen television I reckon VMTV should broadcast the programmes like that.
