Makes sense for the Channel Islands to have been sharing, they must be the smallest stations in terms of size of population so it's difficult to justify seperate schedules there. Although I believe they get one of the highest audience shares.

I knew London was being spared a lot of the sharing, but hadn't realised that Manchester and Merseyside were too, that's a change from the original plans isn't it. I know WM isn't sharing with some of its more rural neighbours.

Problem is if they exempt a few cities then why not all?
