Getting BBC One London - but I'm not in London

My TV region here is BBC Oxford; on terrestrial and back on Sky I got BBC One Oxford, but since I've been on VM I've had BBC One London, which is nice enough to watch, but I want my local news!

Is it fixable, changeable, whatever? I know we come off the Luton headend, so I'm guessing that has something to do with it.

You're actually on the Watford headend. I'm afraid you can't change it.

Ah that's lame. Were we ever on Luton, or did I just dream that bit?

Spose I'll just have to stick with the TV card in the PC

They're just the national main regions (England, Scotland, etc). No Oxford there.

See, I thought I HAD seen them, but then we swapped to NGTV not long after I got V+.

Oddness.
