Middleton murder were almost denied the chance to watch the first viewing on Tuesday night.

Cable outages were reported just hours before the broadcast of the documentary.

Bermuda Cablevision reported that there was a cable outage in the Pembroke area. The outage was caused by a power relay loss which affected the areas of Woodbourne Avenue, Woodlands Road, Portions of Serpentine Road and Rosemont Avenue.

The Documentary "Bermuda: Death on the Rock'' aired on the A&E Network at 11 p.m. on Tuesday.

Cablevision said that it was made aware of the problem around 10 p.m. and rushed to the scene to repair the relay and corrected it within an hour.

AG SHOW SEEK ADVICE GVT Ag Show seeks advice The Department of Agriculture and Fisheries is looking for public advice on how to update the annual Agricultural Exhibition for the Millennium.

Next week an Agriculture Exhibition questionnaire will appear in the newspaper and the department would like the public to clip it out, answer the 11 questions on it and mail it back by August 13.

A department spokesman said they wanted to do something special for the Millennium and would like public input on the direction the "Ag Show'' should take in the future.

The questionnaire asks the public to identify which parts of the exhibition they do and do not enjoy -- from the livestock and ring events to the vegetable and floriculture displays.

They are also being asked to give suggestions for improving everything from parking, food stalls, catalogues and programmes to the ring events and trade tents.

The department would also like to receive any ideas they have for a Millennium theme.
