http://www.breakingnews.ie/business/virgin-media-sells-339m-stake-in-uktv-516628.html Surely this has got to improve the chances of seeing Dave on Freesat? Thoughts?

Never understood why it's on Freeview and not on Freesat or even Freesat from Sky?
Perhaps a move to 2D or this new sat (1N is it?) might see it going FTA, I won't hold my breath though
BTW defo one of my 10 most watched channels.
