I remember a sales guy knocking on our door while the cables were being laid outside. The sales guy suggested we had the ntl box in our bedroom as we had Sky in the lounge. It was 1997 because we had it when Diana died as I remember turning on the TV to see channels showing messages to turn to news channels.

Had cable ever since, when ntl:home digital launched in Teesside I signed up and ditched Sky, would that of been around 2001?
