1) In the small print of NTL's last channel contract with Sky was a statement to the effect that either Sky starts developing red button services on NTL, or stops advertising them on the versions of the channels NTL receives. That doesn't mean Sky Active *is* coming, just that it could be. I think it will be a long, long time before we have the exact same service as Sky Digital -- they'd surely want to keep some "carrot" for their own service. That said, however, Microsoft Office on the Mac is just as good as the Windows version...

2) If the BBC are providing it, then 100% certainly in ex-CWC areas. And I'd say 95% sure for Langley...
