Its T minus one day here in southern Scotland. Our remaining analogue services will be turned off in the early hours of tomorrow morning leaving us as the first fully digital area in he UK.

And from what Ive seen and heard virtually no-one understands whats happening

After much hunting Ive finally found one of the info banners transmitting on some of the Selkirk analogue channels

Not exactly terribly clear is it?

Confusion starts in Carlisle.

Here is a poster on a bus stop in the Caldewgate Area of the city

Good grief it makes you want to cry doesnt it. 

Its all gone very smoothly here in the Scottish Borders today. Official switch off time from Arquiva was 0001, although the actual monitored times off Selkir from one of the lads on the Digital Spy forum were:
BBC1 - 0001
ITV1 - about 0005
C4 / C5 - about 0010

Arquiva say Selkirk was rerigged by 0130, Galashiels relay was back on at 0945 when I checked the box in the common room of the High School, and Hawick is reported as completed about 1300, although two of the multiplexes were on around 1230
