What we need now is a similar announcement from Channel Five, although they are usually so slow off the mark they may not actually have heard of Astra 1N yet. Perhaps someone should drop Dirty Desmond a quick email ...

Of course, what Freesat users really want to see is ITV2/3/4 in HD on Freesat. Unfortunately there's the small matter of that exclusivity deal they signed with Sky. I wonder whether they intend to keep renewing that, or if they were making the best of being unable to get spare spot-beam slots available at the time.
