BBC Two analogue was switched off and the first BBC multiplex was launched.
At stage 2 (DSO2) – 20 November 2008
All other analogue and low powered digital services ceased broadcasting permanently and the high powered digital multiplexes launched.

Ofcom confirmed that there were no licensed digital self-helps in the Selkirk transmitter group.
For further information about self helps please visit the Ofcom website.
At this transmitter group, the channels used to broadcast pre digital switchover DTT are all within the same aerial group - group C/D.
At DSO, homes recieving TV from Galashiels or Jedburgh could revert to a group B aerial but their existing group E or wideband aerial will be satisfactory.
Channel changes at Eyemouth meant that channelised communal systems needed to be re-tuned at DSO1 and DSO2.
A household in Scottish Borders is most likely to be watching the Selkirk transmitter group. However, they could also be watching the Caldbeck, Black Hill, Craigkelly, Chatton or Darvel transmitter groups.
