On the digital Radio Times, the channel number list takes up 3 lines, with 3 mentions referring to Scotland and Wales. Sky has 3 different channel numbers for BBC3. Same channel with same content. Just makes no sense.

Funny, I don't remember that referendum. It's probably something Virgin sorted out in a dimly lit room with the DCMS with a memo sent to the BBC after the event. Poor Scotland and Wales getting the blame, was your haggis and leek soup served cold or something?
Reusing channel numbers across regions does create one hell of a mess though. Maybe the Radio Times should go back to its roots and print regional editions. Problem solved.
