Have just got Sky Digital today, and its nice to be able to flick between BBC N24 and Sky (and very occasionally ITN).

Very impressed with Sky News active - did someone say that there was going to be a new improved service with 8 or more video feeds, and if so is this being launched at the same time as the new look set etc?

I certainly hope so! There are various rumours about what will feature on the new active service - in particular, it looks likely that Fox News will make a permanent appearance on one of the feeds (presumably live and unedited).

Sky have had the 8 feeds planned since December 2000, so I hope it will be done at the same time as the relaunch.
It was called 'Phase 2', and I was told they had plans to put Fox News on, although I'd prefer it to be a channel in its own right.
Still, I'll get to see the joys of a 'Fox News Alert' and a 'FOX FLASH'... thrilling.

did i hear someone saying that the active screen had the gallery on the night of elections???
They should do a gallery feed, that would be ace!!!!
