Thats one of the few things that annoy me, people talking about England as if they were to refer to it as the UK. There are other countries in Britain you know, and although Wales was mentioned, it is a country in itself and not part of England.
I know all is meant well, but its about time the media got it right.
On topic, Freesat will be providing HD programming sooner (this spring apparently) than Terrestrial Freeview. I can see that being delayed though.

Shouldn't it read Britain or UK rather than England.

There's a country named after wales?
I mean they're so big and slow, they always get caught up in Japanese fishing boats - defiantly NOT worthy of having a country named after them!
Maybe we should take the family for a vacation in Dolphin?
Oh well, don't blame the author - he obviously graduated from a U.S. school (they suck here)

Of course Wales is not, and never has been a country. It is an administritive district of the UK.

Wrong. It didn't even join the Union until the 1500s.

Yes it should.
But why let a lack of knowledge about someone's country get in their way.

It's Wales=country
WHALES=large aquatic mammal
So they didn't name the country after the Mammal. They're not even spelt the same.
