We go digital in April (I think) . I`m sure there is going to be a problem. My mum lived in Devon and bought a new TV just after the region went digital and there was no problem. She didn`t have to do anything at all.
Our switchover was excellent.............until I found that the films I'd already recorded and stored on the digi-box hard drive had become unwatcheable.
Well, what an anticlimax! Nothing happened, the tele hasn't gone blank, the channels are all still there and the same old same old is still on the box!
