I've also discovered text cropping up on more Freeview channels, albeit not news, and I've pretty much lost track of what's going on in the world now (not such a bad thing) as I'd relied on teletext for decades and don't waste money on newspapers which only have a few things worth reading in hundreds. Nowadays people say 'Do you know about...' and I have no idea, it's like being on permanent holiday abroad.

Do we think they'll really get it this year or was that said just to stop people leaving?
Teletext really That is a blast from the past. Did not know it was even suggested it was making a return. Seems old hat for Tivo How ever I recall I used a lot many moons ago. Before BB I guess
Just seen Bens post guess that "kills" teletext as we know/knew it
