You'll need to get a TV tuner card; reception will depend on local signal strength. Some cards will come with software that you can use to record what you're viewing (bearing in mind that the legality of recording tv broadcasts usually requires the recording to be for timeshifting rather than archival purposes).

And technically a TV tuner requires a TV licence... but then again, ive yet to meet the man who follows that law!
