TV3 in widescreen on Sky Digital

Charles Slane

It's finally happened!

As part of the redecorations over at TV3 they've gone widescreen on Sky. So far I've only seen the ads in widescreen - Family Affairs and Heartbeat are still showing in 4:3.

the DOG is horrible

You're not wrong about that DOG.

Emmerdale is wide now, so it's not just ads

The DOG seems a lot smaller when in a widescreen show, but still more obtrusive than it ought to be. But many would argue that any DOG is more obtrusive than it ought to be

Charles, thats good news about the widescreen. The attached link confirms that when Tv3 say they're going to do something , don't hold your breath!:D

Anyone notice too, that the programme description for some programmes (Corrie being one) now has instructions at the end to press Red for "exclusive catch up and behind the scene stuff". The Red doesn't do anything at the moment but could this be a sign of things to come?

they have had that for ages. someone said it was a copy of the ITV synopsis. ITV does have some interactive content

Ah fair enough, talk about getting my hopes up! Is this new though? I've never noticed it before (although I don't usually watch TV3 much).

Was good to see corrie without those black lines on top and bottom of screen like they had.
