Shame I used to get the football scores off there before the days of sky sports news.

How many people actually use it now?

Bad news. I used it to check on the club news. I was surprised it's still going tbf. Is teletext still running??

They both ended a year ago here when TV went all digital. It''s only Northern Ireland which still has analogue TV.

Also much preferred Ceefax for grabbing news headlines, weather forecasts, etc. It was much quicker and simpler than with Freeview.
