I've just checked and we still get Ceefax on BBC 1 and BBC 2. ITV 1 has
a holding page, a subtitles page and a page on digital switchover. There
is no service from Channel 4 or Channel 5.
For reference this is from the Pontop Pike transmitter which covers most
of Tyne and Wear, bits of Northumberland and the northern part of County Durham.
So I've 'got use' for a teletext adapter, but I'd rather it wen't to a better
home as I'd only use it out of curiosity.
