In November all our TVs will have to switch over to digital. For most of us it will mean better pictures and clearer sound but you will need a freeview box. There is help available if you are over 70, and if you would like further information ring 08456 50 50 50.

I know how difficult getting a good signal and picture can be and I have seen it for myself, its terrible! Jim Doyle and Cllr Ray Mashiter have been campaigning hard and we have taken this up with the authorities to see if they can boost the signal, so that when switchover comes, Ordsall residents will be able to get a decent picture.
