And it was a pretty obvious solution, too.
Turn it off then on again at the plug?

Remember, it may be a Scottish television set. So probably she wasn’t using the right cuss-words.

Nope, it wasn’t turning it off and on again.

Boo, try the ‘Guide’ button. Then you’ll probably have to hit another one. More than likely the blue one.

Somehow I don’t think we’re talking about the same thing, Transfrmr.
More than that I won’t say because it will probably get me in trouble (and perforated by many sporks - or at least many times by a few sporks).

Has there ever been an OTCC thread that didn’t end up in the gutter?

Would it really be an OTC thread on MoH without descending into the gutter, though?

Open it up, stick a fresh potato scone in there, close it up and headbutt it until it turns itself on.
