Don't know what's happened here, but just a minute ago on UTV, the end of Club Reps cut to black...and now STV's programming is being shown instead of RPM!

Not sure what's going on with that...

Those symptoms sound like UTV in Belfast has gone down and the transmitters have gone into RBR mode.

In which case the backhaul has fallen over and Arqiva (or whatever they're now called) are giving Sky the next nearest region.

Scotsport actually had a few problems at the beginning of the programme on stv. The final advert before Scotsport begun, it was that ad with David Hasslehoff, then that was stuck for about two minutes, then there's no ident or spnsor, and we crash into the titles. Confused
Mmmmmm...fishy...Confused

Analogue is fine. I don't think UTV allows Divis to go RBR - the blue screen appears.
