Good afternoon, Eirlys,
Yes,
Djokovic v Ward
Seigemund v Keys
Williams v Vekic
Alexandrova v Ivanova
Tipsarevic v Simon
Goffin v A Ward
Klein v Mahut
That is the choice I have using Red Button.
These come through Sky set up, but are all on BBC Red Button.

Thank you Malone. I do not have cable TV so that is why I can see less choices. I thought, for a moment, I was losing the plot :)

Malone and Eirlys,
Seems odd, surely, that because I get BBC through Sky dish, that I would receive more BBC channels than someone using an aerial?
I use Red Button on BBC1 or BBC2, like everyone else.
Technology is baffling!

Yea, it seems bizarre at times, Rusty! My on-screen guide lists various channels as RB/Red Button - but they're not all in use. I know from previous experience - and from what the commentators tell us - that this will change.

Hi Malone and rusty
I just checked and found that interactive TV is available with any digital service,but the type and number of features vary according to whether you have digital terrestrial, satellite, cable or broadband. There you go.....

Thanks, Eirlys. I think I'll just stick with what I have (digital terrestrial)!

Good afternoon, Rusty!
I popped into a neighbour's for coffee, otherwise I would have joined in the Red button discussion!
Suffice it to say that I fall into the same category as does Eirlys.
I only managed earlier on to get the same two choices of match as did she.
And right now, I don't have any choice at all, the present match is being shown on both BBC 2 and my Red Button channel!
I wouldn't know what happens about the other coloured buttons on my remote control.......remember they don't work?
(Malone kindly provided the relevant numbers for the Red Button......I key them in manually .......but I have no idea what to do with the blue, yellow and green ones!!)
I am relieved to find that I am not going bonkers!
I'm glad that the programme "The Somme" is good - I have yet to watch it..... might manage it later this evening.
Yes, I am pleased with that particular tumbler dryer- it was recommended by a friend "in the trade" so he knows what he is talking about.
