Morning,

Thanks for this link and as I live in southern Ireland selected the Northern Ireland link but don't (from a cursory glance) see any listings for RTE or TV3 but perhaps they may not be on Freeview, anyone know.

Otherwise it's a good site and many of the other stations we can get here no probs.

Best,

Tony

hi darran,

like you i have used the guardian tv listings for years and when they
changed their website i contacted them about it and although they
acknowledged receiving my querry they never bothered replying to it.
so the one i use now which shows an entire days listings for a single
channel on one page is:
http://www.freeview.co.uk/whats-on/tv-guide?Text=true&tvgDayOffset=0&tvgRegi
on=Anglia

this will land you on the page with the region selected as anglia and the
listings for todays bbc1 programs.
you can easily choose a different region via the combo box and then save
the new page as a bookmark so you will always arrive there with the correct
region selected in the future.
each channel has it's own individual link and the listings tell you if a
program is audio described.
the only slight critisism is that on the listings once a program has
started it disappears from the list so if you turn the tv over to a channel
and wonder what is on you can't check it in the listings or look up for
example what time it started to see how much of it you have missed.
hope this works ok for you.

Hi List.

Since I've been off-line The Guardian seems to have removed the TV listings
part of their website. I really liked this site as you got a full days
viewing on one page for each channel. Nice and straight-forward to navigate
with JAWS.

Can anyone recommend another listings site to me that offers this kind of
layout? One channel, one page!

Thank you.

Darran
