Was there a technical problem right at the end of the show? |

BBC Scotland was running slightly later than the rest of the BBC network. Perhaps the signal takes longer to reach Scotland.

On virgin media, TiVo.
My HD sound was low from the very start until the first dance, I put the sound up, then it boomed in on the start of the first dance. Note at the end of Doctor Who the SCD Trekker, all lines are closed watch results on Sunday also was very low in sound. Seems a feed issue on HD only. Yes as the keep dancing titles started there was a slight jump in the picture, it was restored and there was an apology. All minor and all out if the way of the main show and dancing, remember it's live and the feed can go. |

They kept the technical issue on the IPlayer. You'd have thought someone would have cut that out before uploading it.

I think SCD may have overrun by a minute or two yesterday.
Maybe certain equipment is automatically programmed to switch off at a certain point. It did feel as if someone had 'pulled the plug' as it is what tends to happen to my satellite dish in very heavy rain, but someone was then able to reinstate the signal within about 5 seconds. Dr Who was meant to be at 8.20, but Strictly didn't finish till about 8.23, so probably something automatically cutting off. As a lot of people don't seem to like Louise Rainbow let's chalk it down as one against her (if running late should have anticipated automatic cut off might kick in, and taken steps to over ride it). |

SCD can and does overrun regularly, a two hour live show with judges comments, star comments will run over, it's not ITV so automatic AD breaks etc will not kick in ( when a goal is scored), it was the feed from Borehamwood it had issues. |

That isn't quite the same thing as an unwanted advert break on ITV, or Red Bee media (responsible for BBC continuity) automatically jumping in with a trailer or announcement) So- it wasn't 'head office' (BBC continuity) cutting the feed before the programme finished- it was 'local' (Borehamwood) but it had a 'the plug has been pulled' feel about it |

It was only on the satellite feed for BBC One HD, I switched to BBC One HD NI (randomly) and it was fine. Weird.

No, we have Freeview hd and the sound was *way* down for the first maybe 10 minutes. Appalling really.

Well the sound came back to normal before the first couple even started their dance, it was just usual introductions, which I really did not miss

Just watch the news, you will see things that are genuinely appalling. A small technical fault isn't in that category.
Then there were the power-cuts; no telly but we had candles and a real fire to boil water for tea.Bit of an adventure when you're a lad,but a bit dull compared to crossing the Med in an inflatable boat

I had the same sound problem for the first 5 minutes in Freesat HD as well.
Did anyone else find the sound went briefly out of sync with the pictures half way through? It was while the judges was talking, and upstairs with Claudia for about 20 seconds, then it righted itself. |

I had the sound of X-factor and the picture of X-factor, what the hell kind of a technical problem was that? I think the taste of my box is broken.
