Think they've had that on for a day or so, we should see some live action in 40 mins.

Are we all sitting comfortably?

Any bets on how far it gets? :-ohmy)

The SD feed at 11626v Astra 1 turned to HD a few mins ago when the music and holding slide faded.
The SD launch was always planned to be on 11023 H 22000, it's even cropped to 4:3
