Today my local cable company came to my place to install new digital cable boxes, and Yes! I've finally got BBC World! Woohoo!

I know there are several people on this forum who can get BBC World, but just how many are there?

I can get BBC World as well on my cable company (Shaw). Unfortunately, I don' t have the $$$ to afford the digital cable box from them. Blah.Sad

But I can get a short BBC News fix on CBC Newsworld at 6:00pm ET. Very Happy

That's great that you Canadians can get World! I can't get it in the States. I've asked World and they just say that they're are 'no plans' to broadcast BBC World in the United States. Sux.

I'm gonna take a holiday more often so I can watch BBC World abroad! I wish it was available on SkyDig, then we'd have BBC News 24 and BBC World!...but sadly Sky won't put it on for UK viewers. :angry:
