I thought that the 200Mb broadband tests in Kent involved fibre to your door. So I'd say sooner than 10-20 years for some areas anyway.
VM really do need more capacity for TV to compete with the various UK and European satellite platforms as well as for broadband and other potential services. They could attract far more customers if they could satisfy the needs of European and Asian residents by eliminating the need for a large dish and potentially multiple satellite boxes.
I have fibre delivered to my door by Ocado. Broadband / All-Bran it's all the same to me! Pardon the toilet humour.
