Here in Berwickshire, we can get both Border and Tyne Tees. In parts of Berwick, and a few miles up the road at Eyemouth, Grampian can also be received.

From memory, I can think of several other overlaps:
Scottish and Grampian - north Fife and around Dundee;
Tyne Tees and Yorkshire (North Yorks); Border and Granada (part of the Lakes and on the Isle of Man);
Border and Tyne Tees (North Northumberland);
Central and Yorkshire (Lincolnshire - some parts of Lincolnshire can also receive Anglia);
and (most interesting of all) south Essex (Anglia, Carlton/LWT and Meridan).

Any others?

>Tyne Tees and Yorkshire (North Yorks);

It also the same in w. yorkshire - in fact, on some tv we get a better quality tyne tees than yorkshire - could this have anything to do with the fact we leave near a transmission station thing (whatever they're called)

ON BBC, we get Look North, and also a version which covers Cumbria (Look a bit more north, probably). I, of course, only watch Look North, for Peter Levy and the weatherman

Chester - Granada, HTV Wales and Carlton Central

North Berkshire - Meridian, Carlton Central and Carlton London

Kent Coast - Meridian and any foreign station that is assisted by 'atmospheric conditions'

You could play this version of Happy Families all day ...

I get two Meridian signals, each with different local news programmes. Does that count?

As I have mentioned before, from my bedroom in the Isle of Man, I always got Border, HTV Wales and Granada.
When the weather was right, I managed to get Central (east and west), Thames/LWT/Carlton, Anglia, Tyne Tees, Yorkshire, Ulster, RTE1, Network 2 and I think a Dutch station once.
High pressure-a-go-go.

From Bangor, Northern Ireland (east of Belfast), I have got on ocassion :

BBC 1 Northern Ireland, Scotland, NorthWest, North East and Cumbria.
BBC 2 Northern Ireland, Scotland, NorthWest, North, North East and Cumbria.
ITV UTV, Border, Scottish
Channel Four (at least two regions)
Channel Five (at least two transmitters)

I can usually get semi-watchable BBC1/2 Scot/Border

>I get three ITV regions: HTV Wales, HTV West and Carlton Westcountry.

Isn't HTV Wales and West one ITV region, except they broadcast from different transmitters?

Do you lot just sit around endlessly re-tuning your TVs, looking for distant snowy regional news programmes with bad sound?



...Kewl!

No, but I do flick between my two Meridian signals saying "Curse them! They're different again!" and so on.

>Do you lot just sit around endlessly re-tuning your TVs, looking for distant snowy regional news programmes with bad sound?

Yes, in some cases my TV cuts out sound, but I can just make out words on screen such as 'Look North'.

Pity the only other ITV region I can get most of the time is Border, though a fine damn good station it is!
