Did anyone see Carlie Waite's new series "Seeing Scotland" on Grampian TV
last (Sunday) night? It's only available on terrestial/digital to people
in Scotland. I got an email from Light&Land explaining how to retune your
Sky box to pick up Grampian and wondered if it was worth doing? I don't
have Sky, so I'd have to ask someone else to faff with their system and
record it for me.
Below is the entire mail I got from Light&Land:
