You can get ALL BBC channels, All ITV channels, C4 and Five FREE, legally on Satellite with no subscription. Some UK channels are hidden on the Sky Subscription and have to be manually tuned.

see http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/forumdisplay.php?f=55

Free* Satellite has more channels than Chorus MMDS or Cable. Sky Pay Satellite has many more.

(*Only about 40 free TV and 20 free Radio worth watching out of the 250+ free channels)
