as cj says it'll be 2 years or so after the vote until independence goes through. except it on some cheesy date as well like st andrews day 2016 or something daft like that. with fireworks over edinburgh castle (if it has one) and salmond thumping a desk mentioning past struggles and how scotland is free at last.
If you want to convince people to stay in the uk instead of the one show mention how all football will go subscription including match of the day and the scottish version...

That's quite harsh, the one thing about the independence referendum, no matter what the media hype, or the hype from either campaign, is the campaign manifestos are about positive about the future, not the past stereotypes you mention.
the preferred independence date is 24 March 2016, the day of the union of the crowns in 1603 and the treaty of union passing between England and Scotland.
well sky and cable in Ireland show the football, as it is around Europe. so no change there. the bbc is shown round Europe.
I actually need to correct myself. tv/radio services may change nearer the date of independence. A new digital Scottish broadcaster is proposed. to what extend BBC services will alter is up for negotiation. likewise what happens to VM, SKY, freeview and Freesat.
I suspect the BBC will fight to keep its services in Scotland.
