The work to intergrate the 2 networks is well under way.
Duplications have been done away with and software is being modified to run on ex ntl as well, this is not as simple a task as it seems, there are 7 different hardware versions running on ex ntl and the new software has to run smooth on all.
CR3 is coming too ex ntl.
As for the box's that 'die' during software changes we know which ones are going to 'die' and are replacing these and have been for some time. When CR3 launches this will be a very long thought out upgrade and should be a smooth launch.
Regarding bromley getting the multi screen stuff, well why not? The network can handle it so why restrict the service for those people so people on langley dont feel left out. Only the people posting on this forum as a rule even know we have 2 diff networks, most are happy with the service they recieve and dont constantly post that they are hard done too. CR3 is coming, please let us do our jobs and we will deliver.
If you could only see how big a task it is to seemlessly change the o/s in hundreds of thousands of stb you would maybe have some patience. 
Thank you,
HM

Explains it all. I can understand the amount of work ntl: have to do and that is why i seem to have more patience with ntl: taking more time with one area of the network then others.
