    yes they will be broadcasting from germany which is then rebroadcasted in the UK it doesn't mean that its being transmitted in Germany though.

    and you are not in germany now are you

    BBC news broadcasts from all over the world sent back to the UK to be transmitted it doesn't mean you can get BBC all over the world

    Here is a link to the BBC World Service's use of digital technology in the UK compared to mainland Europe. The BBC use DRM in Europe. This can handle newer, more efficient codecs rather than the obsolete MPEG2 audio as used in the UK for DAB. More views on the future here.
