Talk:Television in Ireland
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
While the intro was perhaps too North America heavy (note it's author, me, is an Australian), I still feel something needs to be said about the Irish TV market effectively being a subset of the UK market, and why this is the case.
The situation in Ireland is similar to that in Canada, and those familiar with the Canadian situation (and not with the Irish one) would benefit from the mentioning of this simularity.

[edit] southcoast and ch5?!
I live in Cork and i've never heard of South Coast TV! I know of South Coast, but all they do is provide BBC1, BBC2, HTV and Ch4 to the area. Also with the addition of Channel 6 it begs the question... where is 5? Ablaze 16:56, 8 March 2006 (UTC)
- Someone added it, I left it in there as I know that some deflector systems (RLO for instance) used to do unofficial opt-outs, but googleing around suggested that it might not exist.
- As goes C6 - good question. I doubt Five would be too happy if they called themselves "Channel 5", though.
- Is there a Irish Channel called Five? Ablaze 17:21, 12 March 2006 (UTC)
