Ahhh Dear Listener:
Life is not always smooth sailing here at your Belfast Podcast. Over here we have free-to-air digital wide-screen television called 'Freeview'. What this means is that if you have a 'Digital TV' tuner in your television or have bought a 'Freeview' box you get up to 30 TV channels with no monthly subscription.
This is fine in principal but sucks when the reception is bad as the photos below show. Actually, I think they're pretty cool - the images freeze - crashing on your screen. Pretty nifty but I was missing the program I really wanted to see this afternoon.
Oh, what was I desperate to watch this afternoon you ask? Scroll down to find out.

Columbo is the man. He always gets the bad guy...

Jes - the eye was so lazy it decided not to even stay in Peter Falk's head.
Judging from what was on the TV in the previous photos, I am relieved to see it was "Columbo" you wanted to watch.

You should have been watched a comedy classic like Too Many Crooks on BBC2 yesterday (http://uk.imdb.com/title/tt0052301/) - probably the highlight of daytime TV when you're off sick.
