    As they'd say at TG4: ní doigh liom

    Short of getting a footprint that only covers the island of Ireland (RTÉ having already cleared rights for the North) it ain't gonna happen. The only service that might be FTA would be a repackaged RTÉ channel for Britain.

    Malicous rumour. There is an unusually cold metrological condition approaching a traditionally ver hot place too ...

    Locked as nothing useful can be added to subject.

    [More Idle speculation]


    They could of course join forces with freeview in the UK but with conditional access on RTÉ
    costly though.

    FTA would only be possible in the context of the EU directive on television sans frontiers but that might well prompt a court case over several years... [/end more idle speculation]


    [EDIT] Lol Watty-I was replying at the same time as you were locking so didnt see the lock untill the reply went through[/edit]
