Dad's Army in HD
 

BBC have lost the plot. I noticed that some shows with AD had not been
flagged or indeed appearing on the AD listing on the web site, an some which
did not have AD said they had and were on the list with no AD.
My guess is that the person who is updating the site has no actual clue
about anything and just sits there doing as little editing as they can get
away with.
cynic? Moi?

Dad's Army on BBC2 HD tonight is listed as being an HD originated
programme. Does anyone how it can be in HD as I thought it was shot in the
studio on SD colour cameras. It's not one of the filmed episodes. (Except
for some of the outside scenes) The picture looks noticeably sharper than
the average Dad's Army episode. Tonight's episode is entitled "Manhunt".

Yes, my wife made that comment too. Seemed ok to me until she said that.
Did you think the picture looked sharper than normal for Dad's Army?

Microsoft ignores all standards. It is better to use something else such as
Thunderbird for newsgroups. There's plenty of help available here if you
want to
use Thunderbird or something similar.

Thanks for the offer of help but I'm happy with what I'm using, it lines up
ok with other programs on this computer and other computers I have access to
and other users in the house too.

David I entirely missed your reply until Martin's comment.

One of the standards that MS ignore is that at the end of the mail you
can have a line containing only hyphen hyphen space. Anything after this
is the signature.

Your reply has been placed entirely after Martin's signature, and a
conforming newsreader will treat it as signature - it won't be part of a
reply (unless special care is made) and it will probably be in a
different colour.

It irritates other newsgroup users.

An increasing number of newsgroup and e-mail users seem to be using
Windows Live Mail, and this simply does not distinguish between what the
poster has said and the text from previous poster. [And I understand
that 'QuoteFix' doesn't work on later versions of WLM.] However, I'm not
sure how things manage to get posted below the signature line.

Very sorry about that, trying to do best I can by indicating where I start

On the other hand, Microsoft think they are correct, and lots of people,
including me read using their software. I think the original spec was for
dos text readers. Also of course the quote chars seem to be different for
different people so the thing never seemed to work then either, at least not
for me.
