BBC is smarter. Pressing text uses the default page option to redirect you  
to p888. That appears to be all there is now...


Best wishes,

Some of the UK digital channels used to carry teletext. BBC channels 
on satellite used to carry a very limited set of pages, which IIRC 
basically said "don't use this any more, press TEXT on your digital 
remote..."

I'm sure some terrestrial digital channels used to carry teletext as 
well - I remember being surprised by its presence when I got my first 
digital box.
