Be Prepared - X Factor - loss of picture
www.itv.com/xfactor I know that this is the wrong page to put this on, as there is a seperate thread.
BUT, In various parts of the country the last time The X Factor reached the climax - something went wrong with the picture on VM network and VM said at the time that there was a power surge on the network.
Even if you are not watching the X Factor or your watching Strictly, just prepare

Bloody good job. X-factor should not have any screen time anyway. I am always prepared not to watch x-factor!!

Re: Be Prepared - X Factor - loss of picture
There will be a loss of picture in my house this year as the show will not be on!!
Or instead of switching to the website there is always ITV on freeview.
The fault never happened in Scotland afaik. STV kept the feed going if I remember rightly.

Re: Be Prepared - X Factor - loss of picture
So because there was a problem last year there is to be a problem this year 
And even worse somehow we are supposed to prepare for it going wrong?. How? Or are you saying rush out and get something else installed

I seem to remember last year that Arthur was apoplectic at the loss of picture and believed it to be an evil plot cooked up by Cameron and Thatcher to further step on the lower class and deny us enjoyment

Shame loss of picture didn't start at the beginning

Re: Be Prepared - X Factor - loss of picture
Hey, leave X Factor alone!
For the first time ever I got the winner right.
Mind you it is she who must be obeyed whose forced me to watch it for the last millenia.

Re: Be Prepared - X Factor - loss of picture
It might be the most useless thread going, but two years ago there was a power surge, so VM said when Eton Road was on the X Factor and last year also.
VM said that there was a techincal fault in the area that covers where the band comes from
Luckily it didn't happen and l got ythe winner righ and won my bet.
I was just warning memmebsr that this might happen
