I am sick and tired of phoning TW about Nicam.
Sky1's the worst... it loses Nicam on ad breaks... drives
my video bonkers.

All channels have had weird sound problems - "clicking" in the
last week or so... :-(

I have a dolby prologic system and can confirm that channel 4 is not
in Stereo on telewest.   On watching the cricket today (yawn), if I
was using the outside ariel, I got rear speaker crowd sounds  and much
clearer audio from the TV.  On telewest no rear speakers and muffled
sounds.

Some of the channels are definately in dolby pro logic(MTV movies _
sky sports, BBC)  but some others are not(living and other shitey
channels)
