Yup... and this is the same BBC crying a river about Tesco being a monopoly
Like anyone in this country got a choice whether to pay BBC tax or not.

It carries the same old guff that's on all the other BBC channels, just in a different order to try and fool you.



I'm sure you're not missing anything worth watching.

Whoopee - I had this one months ago but it disappeared after about a day and I have never been able to get it at 13E recently, but it's coming in loud and clear on 19E labelled "Test Serv". This on a Fortec Star Lifetime Classic so Free to Air.

BBC Prime seems to have disappeared today on 10920H, 27500 at 19E. It was tagged as "Test Serve" and was there this afternoon but seems to have disappeared this evening. Does anyone know where it might be lurking now, or has it simply been encrypted?

Many thanks - inserted the PIDs manually and it's working again. Strange thing is that I did not have to put the PIDs in manually about three weeks ago but yesterday on a re-scan I lost BBC Prime. However, it's back now and thanks again.

It's me again - BBC Prime seems to have disappeared again after a fresh scan. I'm trying 10920H, 22000, V 551, A 560, P 551. Seems that after scanning it's evading us. Any thoughts?

Just answered my own question. I entered the PIDs manually all over again, despite the fact that the numbers were already showing, and back it came. This seems a strange one, but BBC Prime is alive and well again at 19.2E.
