Anyone else think the "technical difficulties" were confusing which Thursday they'd agreed with ITV? Taking exactly one week seems suspicious.

Great to see the ITV HD have arrived, had to laugh though on ITV4 HD was The professionals (I know SD) had the obligatory black columns to keep the aspect ratio intact, it was just the signing guy was in the middle of the bottom of the picture. At one stage it looked like the signing guy was being interrogated and not Bodie:)

PS I will try to be less grumpy:)

Because taking 3 channels off satellite, descrambling them, transcoding them from MPEG4 to MPEG2, re-encrypting them and distributing them via 54 regional headends is so much easier than using a calendar? ;)

They were always going to be here before Easter, VM would have been working around the clock to fix whatever was wrong, my estimate of by the end of this week turned out to be pretty accurate. :D:D
