Farewell to Ceefax

Well that about wraps it up for Ceefax. Any other UK members here remember or miss it?

I for one was never a great fan of it, though I could see the use.

For those who aren't familiar with the service here's an excerpt from the wikipedia article:

Quote:

Ceefax (phonetic for "See Facts") is the BBC's teletext information service transmitted via the analogue signal, started in 1974. It will run until April 2012 as Pages from Ceefax, while the actual interactive service will run until 24 October 2012, in line with the digital switchover.

I guess with termination of the analogue transmitter they also throw out Ceefax.

Nope I won't miss analogue or even digital HD TV I don't use and haven't watched British TV in 11 years.
