As the BBC now considers only the British Isles to be of interest to its
target audience, what about these superb worldwide quick to load satellite
images/loops?

Area H is good place to see some big storms over the US - and on the same
picture witness what is coming along to annihilate thousands of UK BBQs.

Some of the British isles.

Has anyone seen Orkney and Shetland recently?

I do believe that if one gets a set of binoculars and views the screen
through said bins, one may be avble to see them... on a clear day ;-)

Brilliant.

Makes the BBC look sick. Last word from me in requiem for them, was when
they sent Helen Willets up on the roof to look at that gasometer office
thingie and show a cut down version of that dreadful Kiwi plonker with
Erin neatly snipped clean off.

I wonder if these Yanks have a bit of software they could sell the ITV?
