Bit late to mention it I suppose, but it's nice to see red button facilities on Match Of The Day Live tonight.....

Shamefully, I don't know!

Normally I look this sort of thing up at work and check, but I have been so busy I forgot.

I'm on Bromley, and it's on there, but I confess I've no idea about Langley.

Isn't it wonderful, on BBC one last night, PRESS RED appears, BBC menu comes up and.....................

No interactive content!

I guess everyone alse in the country got interactive except NTL customers with houses a front door and roof tiles

What dso you expect? ntl seems unable to carry any of the BBC interative applications. When I tried to access Score Interactive it merely crashed the box so I go to Freeview for such services.

I take it you didn't try rebooting the box. That tends to help.

Or on Langley with a Samsung, no end of rebooting will fix it!

browneggsandham · 21-01-2005, 16:09

Is it not live on Langley then?

The best thing about interactive BBC football is the score updates service on Sat afternoon. Similar to Sky's but way superior.

Unfortunately I only have freeview and can't get the multiplex properly, so it breaks up a lot. I normally just have the forest match commentary on as well (if I'm not there of course) so I just mute the TV.

I tried accessing the Interactive services during the Oldham - Bolton game (while the game was on) and all I was offered was highlights of the previous days games on a loop.
Did I not leave it long enough into the game as I know BBC normally do choice of commentries.......

Well, for the Utd - Exeter and Utd - 'boro games, I could get the BBCi menu up, but there was no option for the interactive football.

I did reboot a few times as well.

i'm not 100 % sure but i think that is what BBC is offering for the FA Cup that you can select the match highlights you want to see... Abit like Football First on Sky Plus

still at least NTL are slowly but surely getting there
