Dover-Calais, even inside the restaurant, there's always some coverage

just outside Calais

You can already pick up French networks at high points in Dover.

Interestingly enough, I was in north Wales once and my mobile phone
started to pick up signals from Meteor, in the Republic of Ireland.

We had a Two-way mobile radio service of the TV Tx site at Winter hill
in Lancs once around 165 odd MHz. Irish contractor company was using it.
Sometimes they took their vans home and were quite surprised to be able
to chat with their work mates in and around Dublin!...
