Two Welsh villages switch to digital TV
29 March 2005
Digital television will permanently replace analogue in parts of Wales tonight, reports the Guardian. The government’s quest to install digital TV in every British home by 2012 begins in the villages of Ferryside and Llansteffan in Carmarthenshire.
After the analogue signal is switched off tonight, the two Welsh villages will join Berlin, in Germany, as the only areas in Europe with digital-only TV signals.
