There was an amusing story in the Evening Standard this afternoon about
this entitled "Britons at Al-Jazeera TV station rapped for 'drinking
binges'".

It is online at www.thisislondon.com.

The one show I may watch is David Frost's new programme on Friday.

At the moment they're showing 4:3 colour bars "centre cut" out of a
16:9 raster. (ie. There's no black or white bar.)


Now it's ARC'd to 14:9, with black bars top and bottom.


And with a countdown clock, opens at 12:00 GMT today.

The Doha facility for the English Language service is an all HD
infrastructure, so it'll be interesting to see what aspect ratio the
broadcasts will be in.
The 'barker' that was running for a few months was in 16:9 (16F16).

Any ideas when it'll pop up on Sky's EPG ? Presumably before 12 !
