Do you not get five when you have Sky or NTL Digital?

No, FIVE is not available on Sky Digital with just a ROI subscription. (It's only available on it if you have a UK sub or with a FTV card).

It's not available on ntl Digital at all.

I thought that five was skys way into the terestrail market in the UK.

Also would five not be a better option for NTL analogue then E4?

Five are not interested in broadcasting in Ireland at all ATM.

I'm sure ntl would like it on the package, but five don't want to be on it.

However, there have been stories about Murdoch taking over five. If that was to happen, I'd expect it would be likely that it would be available on both platforms in Ireland.

Hop on to a train and go down to Gorey.
Most pubs there will have five via an aerial.
If you Buy enough beer at the bar, I'm sure they'll put it on for you
