Re: Nick & Mike Dimmick
BBC 3 has a lower viewing audience than ITV 3.
BBC 3 then needs to improve its programs and figures,
as BBC 3 is available on all platforms, but
ITV 3 is not on Freeview light.
Too much Family Guy.
I would like them to show some repeats of old classic programs made by the BBC.
Or have they sold them all to UK gold.
Morecambe & Wise, The Two Ronnies, Classic Dr Who, Clips from Tomorrows World, Nationwide,
The Avengers/New Avengers etc.

Web site at Doctor Who prepares to zap 3D and BBC Red Button
says that the BBC Red Button HD is switching to BBC News HD, so it may be the end of 3D for a time. (RH163LB)

"If you are looking for a SD turn off of around 2018."
If they do, then they will need to add BBC4, CBeebies and the BBC News HD channels to all terrestrial transmitters
and not just 80 out of 1000.

On the 5th day of Christmas Auntie Beeb took away from me, my HD red channel.
On the 11 day of Christmas people are wondering why they still can't get some of the 10 HD channels.
It is because you are Freeview light.
I see that the red HD channel has now closed on Freeview Light.
Is it also closing on Full Freeview and satellite?

BBC Radio London, only has an EPG number if you have entered a London postcode with Sky and Freesat.
901 Freesat is BBC iPlayer. (Better than having BBC +1 channels)
ITV Player has an EPG of 903 on Freesat, but I always get the message
'Sorry, ITV Player is currently not available on this device'

Quotes:
Do we really need this entire spectrum for digital television signals?
Well the answer as we should already be aware is an emphatic "NO"!
If we did use the entire spectrum, then perhaps the entire country or at least more of the country could then receive a full Freeview service and not Freeview Light.

We almost already have BBC1 +1 as you can watch BBC1 one hour late using BBC iPlayer.
Going off subject. I often watch BBC iPlayer on Freesat, but can't get the ITV version to work on Freesat.

"Coming soon, ..."
It would be nice if the BBC told us how soon.
Before Christmas?
