if RTE becomes available on Satellite in the North... I doubt they have to drop the football coverage... or you have to watch a blue screen for a hour and a half. IIRC. :eek:

Being able to watch films "as the director intended" * (i.e without cuts "for language and nudity" or just to fit into a bloody ITV network timeslot)

*apart from adbreaks

Soccer and GAA coverage.

Takes all sorts I suppose

Anyway what about Northern Ireland FTV cardholders ?
