you know that WAS actually the first bbc interactive tv - i can't remember when it was, in the 80s or something, they sent out a transparent laminate overlay and some crayons with the Radio Times and some kids' show got you to draw on the telly along with the presenters - genius!

type = 24 pt + or in my experience 27 pt + for widescreen. Tiresius was specially developed for maximum tv legibility.Remember people are much less active when they are sitting on their couch then when they are sitting at a computer. Therefore don't make things complicated for them, they're feeling in the dark for their remotes remember!
