    At 12.30am, all the ITV stations went to the William Road test card. Anyone have any info if they will restart again??

    Fear not! They were back on again this morning @7:00am. I watched a bit of GMTV before heading out to work.

    Does anyone notice that the screen appears to be stretched on the ITV channels?

    It's like they are showing it in letterbox format but stretching it to fit a non-widescreen TV. Also it looks like it's cropping some of the sides and the top and bottom of the screen when you check it against ITV on the aerial.

    Hopefully they'll sort all this out when it goes live!

    They're back.

    I get the feeling that there may be a lot of posts over the next few days saying "They're Gone" and "They're Back".

    Hopefully the last one we see will be "They're Back".

    Yup, thankfully they're back-They should forget about that encryption lark
    Now that the winters in (snowing like mad here at 800 ft any how) All I want to do tonight is sit back , Log fire-COMPANY and ITV on Sky:D

    ......and off again.

    Although interestingly, the regional teletexts were working earlier (as opposed to the main Teletext service, which is a seperate company). Subtitles on 888 were also working.
