    Many TV shops, Homebase, Atalantic also.

    Often also included with a remote "sky eye".

    All the usual on-line satellite TV suppliers stock the "standard Sky remote".

    Selig, you could do best by getting a One-for-all remote that would operate your set-top box,video,dvd and that big lump of a 50in plasma that you have :D:D:D:D:D

    Just a quick warning to people buying remote's on ebay.
    I installed a customer a few weeks back who had bought some + Remotes.
    On the web page they looked fine but on inspection when he showed them to me, they were of very poor quality.
    They were more chunky than normal, made of a different quality plastic, the buttons were not as responsive as usual and they would only operate the + box and would not accept any codes for tv operation.
    Rubbish.
