Thanks Amy and Pamela! :D

Dear Alan

If memory serves me correctly, I have seen you using tv! Do we agree? Is that again the difference of AmE and BE? Could you please shed some light on the different uses?

'TV' is probably the most common on both sides of the pond, Tom. Now, 'telly' -- that's definitely a UKism!
