You can get Tyne Tees in South Yorks. A few years ago I remember getting it on my gran's old portable black and white TV! I think it had Mike Neville doing some IVC before Corrie this was in the mid 90s with the metal chunky TTTV logo (i think the one before C3NE?)

I lived in Leeds for 4 years and could get Tyne Tees and BBC NE&Cumbria - its because the Bilsdale transmitter is one of the most powerful in the UK, Granada Media Sales claim that in theory Tyne Tees can be received as far down South as South Yorks.

Further than that!

Try the West Midlands.

I'll stop now, I really must! Although it is fun to watch Tyne Tees instead of Carlton Central.
