Shame, as digital TV seems prone to signal break-up (where an analogue

Oddly enough, channel 5 was ****e here on analogue, and is generally
fine on digital.

I haven't seen C5 for many years; it wasn't transmitted to the area
outside of Cambridge where I lived (something to do with it
interfering with the university's astronomy dept. I believe) and I
refused to pay x pounds/month for a bazillion digital channels when I was
only ever going to watch four or five of them.



Ah freeview now means you get about 15 for free. Decentish ones that is.
