Which is totally irrelevant to the question as to how London may or may not be defined, for present purposes. Along with the signal strength of the transmitters, which may nor may not, for all I know, also be of relevance, depending on the OP's exact location. Hence the 'if'. michael adams .... |

All from British Transport Films. How might those of us not in London see these? No-one in London watches London Live either, it gets a staggering 0.05% of the audience :-) Hey. Up to double that at times. http://www.ukfree.tv/channels/channel/LONDONL I've been watching some of the old Ealing stuff. There was a train crash story today. And I see they're reshowing the Tube series from 31 August. John Schlesinger's Terminus (1961) about Waterloo next Saturday is in their BFI Archive slot. It's also viewable online at http://player.bfi.org.uk/britain-on-film/. The first three are available to buy on DVD according to http://www.britishtransportfilms.co.uk/.

From Crystal Palace (S.London) it's broadcast on Mux LW at 20kW, which is a tenth of the power used by the main muxes. http://www.ukfree.tv/transmitters/tv/Crystal_Palace -- Iain Archer |

But come August you'll have "Cambridge TV" on freeview channel 8. I dare say it'll be as stunningly successful and revolutionary as all the other local TV services that have launched in the past year... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Local_television_in_the_United_Kingdom That'll be nice then. Fortunately Madingley and Sandy Heath are in the same direction from our TV aerial. -- Colin Rosenstiel |
