    It is available by default on Chorus and NTL.

    It's broadcast free to air on satellite, but not included on the Irish Sky EPG.

    This means you can add it manually (this is entirely legal) using a simple code you can find all over the internet.

    Unfortunately you will not be able to record it using Sky+.

    EDIT: as well as all over the internet, there's a thread on how to do it in this very forum.

    Sorry about this ? What are the settings and how do you tune it in.

    How do you connect a DVD recorder or video to the sky box. does the Sky box have a scart cable? I presume you can record programs from Sky or are they somehow scrambled?

    What channel is it on NTL and Chorus?

    Look at the sticky "Tuning in extra BBC channels" at the top (ish) of this forum, contains all you need to know.

    Yes, you have to manually tune it.

    It's not on the Sky Guide.

    There are instructions in a stickied thread on this forum:
