Crap TV Signal
Anyone else round Matlock area suddenly getting crap TV reception? Digital signal virtually non-existant (although we don't use it anyway) and analogue is right funny interference and all.
I put it down to the ariel at first.

Good job we have plenty of DVDs that we need to watch
Always good to know that I'm getting value for money on my TV licence

It's the weather apparantly. We had duff reception tonight and particularly last night (Berks). The old man said he had the same in Cornwall. The missus saw an announcement about it earlier today - the joys of daytime tv ....

Our digital reception has always been pap which is why we never use it. Get a better picture on analogue
Still we watched the Doom film instead....maybe would have been a wiser choice watching a wobbly wavy TV picture
