I got good reception. I could see the transmitter from my window.</p> <p> BBC One or Two had being running ‘BBC Three takeover’ sessions, with several BBC Three programmes in a row. They were good. It’s not fashionable to say that nowadays. </p> <p> In its early days it was innovative, cutting edge, risk taking and alternative. </p> <p> One of the programmes I saw on the BBC Three take over shows was <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dreamspaces">Dreamspaces</a>, which simply explored modern buildings and architecture. It didn’t pad out the show with music montages, and the presenters gave facts, rather than the normal approach taking by shows of making the presenter be ‘fun but stupid’ and ask an ‘expert’ lots of basic question</a>s.
