It’s still FTA for U.K. viewers on Freeview
No, anything that's Free is generally worth the price, some MLS, some portoguese soccer, and of course plenty of Rodeo and Chainsaw sports from time to time.
Pity it's gone really.
EDIT:As with many others, FREESPORT is now back working FTA - Strange.
Freesports is back FTA for now at least as of 14:40

Summer is coming and the temporary BBC Red Button channels are testing :-
12422 H 27500 2/3 DVBS QPSK
BBC RB2
BBC RB3
BBC RB4
BBC RB5
BBC RB6
BBC RB HD
Food channel disappeared for anyone else?
food network?
ok here
Will I need to retune the main one that shows the extra Snooker/Golf etc when they overrun or are these extra ones?
These are extras they put on each summer usually for Wimbledon tennis. The existing one is unchanged.
Has the BBC2Ni HD channel gone again, all. I'm seeing for the last week or so is a green screen where it used to be.
No, it's still there. What are you trying to watch it on? It's on 10817V 22000 5/6 DVB-s QPSK
Scratch that - I was looking at the wrong BBC2 NI. You're correct, it IS on green screen at the moment.
It's back on now though.
E4 Extra replacing the current version of 4Music on June 29th.
Simultaneously a new version of 4Music (which will actually play music) will replace Box Hits (which isn’t on the Irish EPG)

Meanwhile, SyFy reverts back to a more conventional spelling as Sky Sci-Fi from July 26th

I came across this post on the TV Gold Facebook page:
At the End of June CBS Justice is being axed. CBS Reality Will be rebranded to just "Reality" & Get a new Reality "XTRA" channel which replaces CBS Drama. Horror becomes "Legend" & a new channel Horror Xtra will launch. This is all linked to the launch of paramount Plus.

will that effect FTA in Ireland?
If you’re using a satellite dish, not at all. Except for Forces TV closing down on all platforms.
All BBC RB buttons active, showing Wimbledon test card.
Any ideas what I’m doing wrong in getting all the bbc red buttons channels? I have sky and all I have is RB1 and when I search with the frequency that’s all that comes up.
You’re not doing anything wrong. There seems to be some issue (unsure if accidental or deliberate) that is preventing the transponder from being manually tuned.
11.265 H 27500 2/3 - "Box Hits" has been renamed "4Music" and added to ROI Sky EPG on 354 (6 Music channels now on EPG)
10.936 V 22000 5/6 - "4Music" has been renamed "E4 Extra" on Sky 139
The renames of the former CBS channels have taken place today.
CBS Justice becomes Legend
CBS Drama becomes Reality Xtra (though confusingly it will still show dramas!)
Horror Channel becomes Horror Xtra
CBS Reality stays the same, for now, though presumably the CBS name will get dropped too at some point.
So does that mean that some of the old programmes such as The Fugitive are now gone?
The Fugitive will be showing on RealityXtra.
The changes don’t affect what rights they have but it is expected that Paramount will pull out of the partnership in due course.
I dont see it listed in their schedule for the week ahead bar the repeats of this weeks eps on Sunday on RealityXtra
Horror Channel hasn't actually shown a decent Horror film in ages so no surprise the re name
