Ermm, what TV signal do you receive?  From radiotimes.co.uk for this 
evening:

18:00 News, widescreen
18:30 Regional news, widescreen
19:00 The One Show, widescreen
19:30 EastEnders, widescreen
20:00 Holby City, widescreen

or perhaps some sport on BBC2?

19:00 Snooker, widescreen
20:00 Speaker, widescreen
21:00 Cruickshank on Kew, widescreen

or football on ITV?

19:30 CHampions League, widescreen
22:00 ITV News at Ten and WEATHER, widescreen

It seems to me like *every* program is widescreen.

I tend to mostly watch sport and the news, not much else, luckily all of 
that is widescreen so I never notice any problem :-)
