I'd say, Border, Scottish, Grampian and possibly Ulster... and on a really good day, Tyne Tees Television.

Ok... dumb question I know... is it possible to get Digital Channels on analogue TVs? Cos i'm pretty sure I got N24 on my mum's portable tv once.

No, it is not possible. BBC News 24 broadcasts anytime after 01.00 until 06.00 on analogue though (on BBC One).

It was probably for a special or something, because they do stick themselves on BBC One, everynow an again for breaking news.

Actually, I know of a way of making an analogue picture. There's this rectangular socket on the back of many televisions.... oh hang on a minute! That's a scart socket for plugging a box into
