Digital Switchover in UK

For your information... UK... the switchover to digital will take place between 2008 and 2013, and will be ITV region by ITV region.

Do you know which TV region you are in? Check by seeing which ITV news service you receive. Alternatively, use Teletext page 106.

The switchover years are detailed below:

Border... 2008 - 2009
West Country, Granada... 2009
Wales... 2009 - 2010
West, STV North... 2010
STV Central... 2010 - 2011
Central, Yorkshire, Anglia... 2011
Meridian, London... 2012
TyneTees, Ulster... 2012
Channel Islands... 2013

If it all goes as smoothly, and with the inadequate amount of assistance, as it did in the trial area... God Help Us!

Did you notice that London wasn't assigned to go digital till 2012? I wonder why! And why [to my untrained eyes] are the least populated areas being subjected to the upheaval first?

Please don't get cynical!
