    You need to ask TV3 why ITV is not on SLY digital in Ireland.

    The short answer is, because ITV has not paid to be on the Sky EPG in the Republic of Ireland.

    The longer answer involves a discussion about broadcasting rights, in particular, ITV's decision to sign a contract for the exclusive supply of its programming in the Republic of Ireland with TV3.
