Well the url quoted has ITV player that will play it for you... If
you want the channel to watch normally do you have satelite telly?
It'll be there somewhere but ITV do tend to hide the regional
variations but a google will find the required settings for tuning in
"other channel"s.

http://www.lyngsat.com/28east.html

Transponder 49 - 10.832GHz Symbol Rate:22000 FEC:5/6
ITV 1 Westcountry West
ITV 1 Westcountry South West

Can't see a "westcountry-east" in the satellite listings but then
there isn't one on the website either but confusingly if you select
"The West Country Tonight West you do end up with a
westcountry-east URL...

Cheers

Thanks Dave for this information - a bit over my head I'm afraid.

That's probably because your aerial is up on the roof.

I was able to view this from Pam's link even though my ITV channel is
Central. It did take a while to load though, and there were 4 or more
adverts to sit through first. It was a nearly 5 minute long news
interview, interesting.

What I find interesting is they are just beginning to take these sightings
slightly seriously. Always before there has been another agenda in the
background, to make the person seeing the cat(?) look silly and have a laugh
at their expense. I wonder how many sightings there actually have been that
have gone unreported for that reason.

I cannot see any reason why big cats that were probably released when it
became illegal to keep them without a license cannot survive in the depths
of the countryside, where they can get food and water and hardly ever be
seen.

I take these sightings seriously.
My friend saw a huge black cat run across the road in front of her car once.
She is sensible, does not drink at all and I do not doubt her. She
described it as "as big as a leopard"
Never seen since.

The huge black cat of Whitby turned out to be a Labrador.



This does not mean that sightings of big cats are not true.
My friend has judged at Crufts - she'd know if it was a dog of any sort.

Yes, but that was Yorkshire - we allow for them in various ways.

True, but it was the culmination of at least two years of sightings
reported in
the local press.


So, do you believe it or not?
I do. I know that if my friend saw a huge black cat the size of a leopard
running in front of her car she would not make that up and phone me about
it.
There is no way she would mistake it for a dog.
To judge at Crufts is a lifetime thing, she knows all dogs, how they move,
what they look like. She said it was a big cat.

So if a giant Black Cat crosses your path does that mean more luck
than with a normal black cat crossing your path?
