Well - the first switchover day has arrived today. For weeks I've been turning off those Banner messages that keep popping up at the bottom of my screen telling me to "retune on the 14th or you may loose some of your channels".
So at 0830 I dutifully started the 20 minute search on my old Nokia On-Digital box - and lost all of the BBC channels.....
Luckily I was watching BBC1 analogue at the time, when the local BBC news was running; right at the end he says "Retune your set.."
etc etc "...after mid-day." Hang on I thought, 'After mid-day'? Why has not one of all the messages I've seen and heard over the last month made any reference to this before?
Reschedule rest of day and let my two elderly neighbors know I wont now be coming round at 1030 and 1130 to retune their boxes for them.
