Test the nation

looks like this isnt interactive this time, despite the fact that last time the BBC said they were "working so we could play along next time". Why do BBC take freeview over us, we are all equal and BBC is a public service. I think if one platform doesnt get a BBCi app, then no platform should.

Who thinks it will be interactive, Next time.

Re: Test the nation

Maybe that can be a question on the next Test The Nation?!?!?

I don't think it's a BBC problem to be honest, I doubt the ntl platform could handle it....the Olympics was bad enough (although a lot better than it used to be)

Re: Test the nation

It's worth pointing out that the freeview platform has a lot of BBC investment

Re: Test the nation

Anyone going to post their scores? I printed the sheet off the web site and played along with that.

Oh and 41 points.

Re: Test the nation

OK where do you get such statistical information. Seems I'm a musical thickie, despite what I though, though I did screw up round one, thinking they were far to trick questions, being on the cusp of new decades...
