History of the National Grid, no idea about i-player+freeview
channels+foreign IP/proxies.
I wonder if they will nail the story I've never seen confirmed anywhere . In
early days each power station supplied a local area with the the chance to
link across to a neighbouring grid in times of heavy useage. No one dared
hook up 3 or more grids due to concerns over current hogging/ burnouts or
something. Anyway middle of the night sometime a lowly technician decided,
for a wheeze, to link loads of these separate grids together and nothing
untoward happened.
