DAB+ tests have taken place on an experimental ensemble in Brighton. The BBC has announced that it will conduct tests of DAB+ during 2014. Ofcom has announced that broadcasters on a forthcoming second national commercial multiplex will be free to use DAB+ if they wish, subject to a maximum of 30% of the ensemble's capacity. Generally, however, broadcasting in the UK still uses "original-flavour" DAB transmitted in Band III. A "tick mark" is to be launched this year as a marketing tool to signify receivers that meet a certain minimum specification. DAB+ capability is expected to be one of the requirements for the tick mark. Wohnort recommends, now more than ever, that you should consider buying a receiver that is DAB+ capable even if you never plan to take it out of the country with you. Such a receiver should also be more future-proof than one which only receives DAB.

"Your weekend television in the North" ABC Television was until 1968 the ITV weekend contractor for the Midlands and the North of England and broadcast from studios in Didsbury. Their opening music, Perpetuum Mobile, was written by staff member Michael Roberts. It was also used by Thames Television, following the shotgun wedding between ABC and Rediffusion that produced the new weekday contractor for London in 1968.
