it's actually 600Hz but that's really pushing it yeah that's the idea but I'm not convinced. 100 fps maybe but 600... Not so sure. I think it's megapixel syndrome kicking in.

Your TV may be 50Hz but that is interlaced and displays alternating lines then rescans and fills in the blanks. 24/25 Hz or fps in progressive scan (display the fullframe at once) is what the movie studios aim at for a filmic look. That's a seperate issue though and what you suggested (yes I'm being pedantic) was to buy a 600 'milli' Hertz TV i.e. 0.6 frames per second. I'm not convinced of the need for 600Hz as the human eye can't interpret that many frames in a second. Another sticker for the TV that's all it is for all but the very fastest scenes.

I would definately opt for LED backlighting. I have a regular back lit LCD set and it is very noticeable in dark scenes. Blacks are greys and the backlighting is uneven. I wouldn't bother with a 600mhz TV as Monsta suggests. You'll quickly get bored of watching movies at that framerate. 24Hz at least I'd say

hmmmm, now are you sure this time?

Watching the third debate... since when did cuts = taking money out of the economy? Brown seems to think the Government IS the economy. Money back into the private sector, there's your efficiency savings.

Ah! Now that could make more sense.

There was a carrington in Midlothian, Scotland until 1975 if that's any help.

Maybe we could install loudspeakers playing classical music in all known hostile states as a pre-emptive measure... well it worked for the Metro.

I think Monsta is referring to Camerons interview with Paxman where he did a very poor job of answering a question on which areas were more dependant on the public sector.

Or am I about to be hit over the head with a frozen husky?

You looking for self sacrifice?

I think it's this? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LNER_Peppercorn_Class_A1_60163_Tornado passing through Bedlington at 14:10.

First candidate to reply to this thread explaining how they are going to engage with the people of Bedlington gets my vote as they'll have already done it. I'm going to put the kettle on, this could be a long wait...

A great loss, very well respected by all here. R.I.P. Joe

The problem I see with that is there needs to be some free thinking candidates and not ones simply toeing the party line. With no local candidates actively engaging with the electorate the only connection a lot of people get are these debates.

Because I'm anticipating a hung parliament.

"I have been to Afghanistan a few times. Every time you're blown away." oops!

Round two... Who goooes... you decide!

Sad news indeed, get well soon Joe.

I can remember getting told off for riding the raisbeck back from the youth club one day when somebody forgot to pick me up! you know who you are!
