I wish we had tyne tee tv.  :'( The schedulers probably think us southerners are far too posh to grow our own!
gone to pot :D

I might be wrong, but I think if you have Sky Digital, you can pick up regional ITV channels (our ITV is Meridian)

They stick different regional versions of the same channel in the higher channel numbers. Starting on the main channel page, Page Up, go past the  :-* channels (!) and you should find lots of ITV and BBC variants. Not at home at the moment, but will have a look if Tyne Tees is there.

Thanks Ross - we have NTL and I know we have BBC wales and scotland, but i've never seen regional ITVs. I shall have a look.

Legless,

Thanks for that - watched it and thought it was really interesting for a 'newbie' such as I am

Debs  ;D

rdak

thanks too. really good programme.

anyone else who isn't in Tyne Tees area and has Sky:

Go to Services
System Setup
Add Channels
Change frequency to 10.891
Set the H/V setting to H
Next one to 22.0
Next one to 5/6
Then select Find
When it shows the list of ITV channels, go to Tyne Tees and press Yellow, then Select to exit
To watch each time, go into Services, then select Other Channels.
Unfortunately you don't get the full listings for the day/week- it only shows what is on now and next.

oh excellent, i'm pleased you all could get it!

i don't think his shed is really like that though......

I watched it too, Legless. Interesting idea about the "mole cure" with the empty wine bottles.  Good to see a programme almost entirely dedicated to veggies.   :) busy_lizzie

wasn't on last night, due to football, but have looked at the listings and doesn't feature next week, so perhaps it has finished...?

Debs

It must have finished as it wasn't on tonight either.

Was it just me, or did it only have a half dozen or so programmes to the series ???

It was moved for the Football and should be on this coming Monday
