Why is BBC1 showing Holby City when it is meant to be Mistresses - or is it just my tv?

meep · 08/01/2008 21:24

It's Holby in Scotland. I am overjoyed because I have discovered that we can get English BBC on Virgin 851, so am watching Mistresses.

meep · 08/01/2008 21:31

Tamum I love you - I have 851 too - have now missed 29 mins worth ranting about it to my non Scottish DH

I love you too meep (I have been ludicrously chuffed with myself ever since I found out- you can get English ITV too on 853, sometimes useful if there's footy on)

meep · 08/01/2008 21:43

I think my husband love you too - he'll now be able to watch his beloved mighty reds play footy - you should hear his swearing when he can only get Scottish games!

So does Scotland not get Mistress at all then?

Meep - mighty reds aka LFC?

fishie · 08/01/2008 22:16

oh bugger, i thought it was holby and turned it off.

meep · 08/01/2008 22:19

Yes geordiemacminx - LFC - the love of my kiwi DH's life!!!
Doesn't look like us Scots are allowed to have Mistresses - I was so annoyed I nearly phoned the complaints line!

geordiemacminx · 08/01/2008 22:36

Meep - We are off to Boro on Sat to see them!!! Are you over on the east coast?

meep · 09/01/2008 07:48

my DH is very jealous! Yes, I'm on the East - do I sound like an East coaster?!

meep - my MIL phoned me to rant about getting River shitty City and Holby instead, she doesn't have sky, or get a tv guide, so muggins here had to look through all the BBC listings for her to find out what day/time Mistresses was being shown in Scotland

geordiemacminx · 09/01/2008 08:31

No not at all meep, I just looked at your profile and saw that you had posted on an Edinburgh thread.

There is a thread in the meet-up section - north of the border - we all have babies around the same ages as your dd, my ds is 8 months, we have meet-ups in the east and west if you would like to join us!!

meep · 09/01/2008 08:48

gmm - thank you for the invite - I will definitely check out the north of the border thread
