Colm O'Regan: We'll need AERTEL when the Zombie Apocalypse comes
In 1989 we got a secondhand telly that could handle the awesome power of AERTÉL. There was nothing like that day.
June 22, 1987. A day that will live in infamy.
The setting (literally) was our Panasonic telly. Our first colour one bought the previous Christmas with a remote control that wasn’t a small child. And on that remote control there were buttons that hadn’t been used so far. A button with a rounded rectangle and a grill of lines. AERTEL.
