    My analogue BBC2 is gone already.....just getting a blank screen at the min !!

    Same here went off at exactly 19:09 as I was watching it from Kilkeel with no warning! Maybe its just a test. Although I did a scan for digital channels on same frequency but got none. Hopefully everything will be up and running this time tomorrow :D

    BBC2 was the first UK channel to broadcast 625 lines UHF. And now it's going off in 90 mins.

    BBC Two NI shut down just before 00:24 - a fraction of a second before the switch was pulled, Ceefax went "Off The Air".

    Had two screens available to monitor both Brougher & Strabane, but shut down simultaneously.

    Currently all multiplexes from Brougher are down except Multiplex 1 funnily enough!

    More updates shortly...
