I just asked a simple question. You lot have been going on about positioning about your 'other' ITV1 regions so I simply asked what number do you think it would be on. I didn't mean to bring AD into it or anything I was just asking a question and hoping for a sensible reply.


I know you were asking a simple question, I gave you the answer! I'm not being funny or anything, but you always seem to slip in a reference to Telewest in the majority of posts you make. But, who cares, say whatever you want. Very Happy


Well, hopefully if I am some bigwigs at that place are here 'secretly' and know I think its s***e. Maybe they'll do something about it! Well, maybe not! Lol! Smile Anyway, I promise not to say anthing about it now. I'm not that bothered anymore about the interactive stuff. I know in time we'll get it so at least I have that.

Right, signing off. Going out. Bye Bye.Very Happy

This filter is far to sensitive. Was than an 'a' or 'i'?

Anyway, I love this plug on the ITV.com SkyDigital page:

I'm still not happy. Is there an alternative? top

DAS, it's my duty to uphold the moral standards of this forum and therefore any possible 'naughty' words will be censored by my own fair hands.

It seems as though Granada is the region having problems with the overlaps... can anyone in Granada Land actually get a second region?

PS: Just a note to say that the chatroom is currently open and moderated, will just help to cut down on bandwidth a little if people use that a little more instead of turning this into a 50 page topic by 7pm.

Has anyone in 'The North' got more than one ITV1 region on their SKY EPG?.

I personally live in a non-overlap region, and probably would need a 100ft aeriel to get anything else on analogue.

Of course Tyne Tees and Yorkshire viewers may get a different Regional News service to what they usually receive.

Yes I saw that plug on London Tonite, and I quickly pressed 963, but arrh nothing!

Just bloody granada on 103, hopefully they will sort something out as we should deffo have HTV or even maybe Carlton Central, both of which I can get something from.

Oh well, looks like I'll av to stick to watching via the other channels Sad to watch carlton london, lets hope they don't make it impossible to watch them and that they get the widescreen workin soon!

Cheers,

I've just had a bijou chatette with a suprisingly helpful chap on 0845 070 4466 and it appears that they're noting the postcodes of people who ring to say they've got the wrong, or not enough, regions.

The trick therefore seems to be, that if you want some extras on 963 and 964, ring up yourself, then get all your neighbours with the same postcode to ring up asking for the same regions.

Either that, or keep ringing up using a different accent, but I'd never suggest anything as sneaky as that in public, would I?

At the start of this topic, its says ITV2 will also launch in a few days, so will it launch on Saturday when Millionaire Interactive launches?

I would severely doubt it. Sky Digital and ITV Digital systems are completely different, so the Millionaire application would have to be ported from the ITV Digital platform to the Sky Digital platform.

Although maybe they have been developing it for Sky Digital as well as ITV Digital.

Never thought I would see the day !!! Crap regional UTV programmes on Sky Digital :S The shame !!

We in Northern Ireland only get UTV on 103 Sad
I know it is possible to get Border and Scottish TV in North Eastern parts of Northern Ireland but channels 963 and 964 are showing nothing Sad
