Sky halves EPG charges for public service broadcasters and save

BBC3 £994,310, BBC4 £310,055 ?
cBBC £342,130, Cbeebies £737,715 ?

I would have thought that the cost for BBC3 / BBC4 would have been the same
and Cbeebies costs twice as much as cBBC!

Sky need to sort out it's EPG software so it can show ITV 4+1 again, or is it that ITV have decided not to show the +1 channel on Sky due to the high cost of an EPG slot.

Switchover completes for non-coastal West Sussex

Haywards Heath was in East Sussex until the 1970's but is now in West Sussex.
HH goes digital in a few months so most but not all West Sussex north of the Downs has Freeview.
But I'll let you off as we believe we live in Mid-Sussex.

You can double that number if you have a plus 1 box.
You can also watch it on-line and many programs are also on DVD.

Re: aziz
You need to attach your satellite receiver to a satellite dish.
Your virgin broadband line uses your telephone line, which is a different system.
So you will need a dish as well as a satellite receiver box.

Q: Will relays get all the channels? Bill Taylor takes 25 seconds to say no.
Bill Taylor: "About 15 channels for relays." (Excluding repeated channels it's 12 channels)
"Remember Crystal Palace started TV all all those years ago." (And not Alexandra Palace?)

Reducing the service to three multiplexes, would be the fair option. Then all transmitters would have the same number of channels.
But I expect that one or two people might complain.

You have expanded the area to cover the Republic of Ireland from just the UK.
So go International with France, Europe and the world.

Re: MCMLXII

According to the web page at;
http://www.digitaluk.co.u….pdf

BBC Two analogue ends at midnight and BBCA/PSB1 will start by 6:00am for Haywards Heath and Heathfield. But times can change on the day, if they have problems. (RH163LB)
