Was watching darts on SP1 tonight and Dave Lannig said if you want to continue watching the darts then press the red button before 7:30pm to continue watching the darts (Football being shown on SP1 at 7:30pm so they only showing darts til then)
my question is this obviously if I hit my red button on KV it will take me to channel listings, is it possable that we can accsess this red button to keep watching the darts etc, prob not, prob ony works on legit SKY satalite boxes to do this.

anyone know owt about this one.

The box doesn't have talkback, so i'm afraid no mate.

If Carlsberg made these boxes then we probably would get interactive channels and more, but unfortunately they dont m8, so we will just have to put up with all the other free channels that we do get without interactive

u wouldn't see it even if interactive 'talkback' was available as these options aren't transmitted by cable.....only sly....
