70.2% of households in this fair isle of ours now have access to digital television. Well, that's what Ofcom reckon, and they look like reliable sorts. That stat comes from the quarterly Digital Television Progress Report. Politicians will welcome the somewhat rapid growth in digital TV of course, because they are keen to start turning off terrestrial TV signals as soon as is viable - mainly so all your secondary portable non-digital TV sets (in your bedroom, kitchen and study) will stop working. Politicians hate portable TV sets. It's official. You read it here first. One politician, who asked to not be named, told CMU last week "I hate portable TV sets".
