Unhappy BBC4 Mozart Interactive (or not)

I guess this is typical NTL, but should I expect to get an interactive service when the programme presenter tells me to 'hit red'?

Simply getting a 'no enhanced service for this programme' type response is not good enough - not after a couple of years of promises and failed offerings. The only saving grace is that the STB didn't hang when I did try and go for it ....

Re: BBC4 Mozart Interactive (or not)

It worked okay on BBC2 earlier, in Bromley areas at least.

I have no idea why NTL can do e-TV on BBC1 and 2, but not the other BBC channels. I do wish someone would tell me...

Re: BBC4 Mozart Interactive (or not)

Do a search on the forum for CR3. NTL are in the process of rolling out a (long overdue) software update on the set top boxes which should make BBC interactive available.

Edit: Pardon my bad manners. to the site rustman. We're (mostly) a happy bunch, and you can get advice here ranging from technical NTL/ pc issues, as well as more down to earth things like how to wash your windows.

Thanks for the comments guys - maybe I'll give the BBC2 interactive a try next week.
