Re: ITV Regions....



Looks like Meridian (& many more) are available via sky

However with sky, if they are not part of the advertised packages you can
never be sure that they will be there tomorrow.

Yep BBC is more pro monachy (a lame attempt to make up for the typo).

You can get all the reginal BBC1 programs on sky but not sure about ITV. I
think you can get the next ITV region - which is what you want -:) Or at
least you used to be able to.

Cannot check at the moment but will have a look later if it helps. At our
last house we got an extra aerial (on a big post!) to pick up another
transmitter - but looked messy.

As long-term UKHAers will know, I watch very little broadcast TV.

There was, however, a programme on the Bluebell Railway on the local
ITV (Meridian) this evening.

We turned on, and got the Carlton Multicultural awards instead which,
while doubtless socially desirable, just aren't steam trains, old boy.

It turns out we live on the boundary between Carlton and Meridian,
and our aerial is pointed as a Carlton transmitter.

Is there any way that we could get Meridian some other way???
Freeview? Sky?
