      @Ryan Parker Indeed. They were so hot you could make toast and tea with them! Also when I.T.V. Digitial said you just nedded a box this was before Analogue closedown 12 years ago. For I.T.V. Digitial you needed an aerial extension.

      This reminds me of the Sky Q box we have now. It overheats, then shuts down, then overheats and does it all again. A family member eventually came up with the (not ideal, but does the job well enough) 'solution' of making little wooden blocks (akin to very short table legs) to keep it hoisted up off of the table surface.

      Tragic? There was a debate about whether monarchs should retire by abdicating at the time and the Queen was absolutely against it. She always intended to do as almost every other British monarch had done before her and reign until death.

      @@127dot0dot0dot1 Old comment I know but to anyone else looking here: there were allegations, with quite strong evidence, that Sky News' owner, Rupert Murdoch's News Corporation, hacked the ROM files for the ITV Digital service and leaked them onto the internet to encourage disruption to the service. French cable company Canal+ made the first accusation and a BBC Panorama investigation found it to be true through leaked emails. The Metropolitan Police started a criminal investigation in 2013 but as usual with Mr Murdoch it went absolutely nowhere.
