Actually that was a screengrab I took a few nights ago (while testing my TV capture card) before QM returned to ITV1.

Not seen it for a week on ITV2 due to atmospheric conditions meaning I kept losing the ITV signals (now in most cases that isn't bad due to the poor standards of ITV - I now even watch Ned1,2 & 3 which have more quality than ITV). But I did see the granduous return on ITV1.

Can't really see much of it tonight due to work commitments in the morning. I had my Ascension Day Bank Holiday on Thursday (and my office decided to stay closed for Friday as well) so it was a nice long weekend for me, for a change!!!!! Laughing Laughing

How the heck are you managing to get ITV channels in the Netherlands? Your satellite dish must be feckin' huge!
IIRC, the ITV channels broadcast digitally from Astra 2D are focused specifically to be beamed over the UK only.

The Netherlnads are actually in the UK catchment area, so can easily pick it up via Astra/Sky 2. I am surprised that CA hasn't had the idea of setting up a cable/satellite/digital region for the British in the Netherlands (calling it ITV Holland). BBC could easily do the same there are so many British, Dutch and other nationalitites that watch BBC, ITV, 4, five and Sky in the Netherlands (more so than their own stations)

I've heard that viewers in the Netherlands have been able to pick up BBC One and Two on cable for some time now.

(And all without paying a penny towards the BBC Licence Fee ... tut tut!)

When I was a child I used to travel through the The Netherlands quite a lot and used to watch BBC (via aerial) all the time, especially Neighbours Embarassed . But picture is clearer now that it is on cable. I do presume that the cable distributors do actually pay quite a sum to transmit BBC1 and 2.

It's great that QM is back on ITV1, but now much harder to get through to play any of the games! I haven't counted, but both QM and The Mint don't seem to take more than around 30 calls each in a 4 hour slot. It's a pity they can't actually take more callers and give out more prizes.

I would agree with comments in this forum that TV game shows all take advantage of the vulnerable.
