There was an incident when they were at Fountain Studios in Wembley where the BBC helped out. IIRC that was a big failure at BT Tower so if that's what happened then presumably the BBC either uplinked it to satellite or used some other connectivity to ITV or ITN.
There was one X Factor/BGT failure, might be the same as the above, where there was a satellite path for Irish TV and that was used - with the BBC downlinking it and passing it on to ITV
Thank you.
