    WTF's going on with RTE during the wee-hours lately?

    Firstly, RTE2 have been showing some static Aertel page from March of this year as their 'test-card'.

    Secondly, watching 'Bewitched' this morning at 5am (don't ask). Programme finishes, credits roll, then the last 10mins of the show gets put on again.

    Huh?

    Do they let the Night watchman run the VT suite during the wee-hours or what?

    Or what's up with the readers of ther short late-night news bulletins? They look like ghosts (poor make up) and you can see their eyes following the auto cue continuously.

    Although I like to give RTE a good kicking as well as the next man, I think that's going a bit too far.
    What would you like them to do? Learn the news off by heart?

    Of course they look like ghosts! It's the late news slot!

    Well they could sleep during the day, then they wouldn't look like ghosts :cool:

    It's hard to sleep during the day when it's hot outside :p . The only good thing about late night RTE is the Aussie cop shows. Cop drama + Aussie Drama=:)

    Whats the story with the announcer during daytime he has a strange voice and mumbles a lot he is impossible to understand. I notice it during Veronica Mars.
