    Hi All,

    I know this has probably been asked a hundred times, but anyway!!!

    I have a sony bravia with built in freeview at the moment I have Rabbits ears plugged into it and get all the Irish Channels perfect, RTE1 & 2HD, TV3, 3e and TG4 all digital and very good quality but what I want to know is if I run a cable from my Sky Dish to the TV will I pick up any additional channels?

    No. As your tv has built in Freeview, you will need a set top box. Your tv would need built in Freesat to do what you described.
