No. You only have what UPC provide on the EPG.

Sky uses Satellite, which has many satellites and Channels not controlled by Sky, it's an open system, like a LW/MW/SW/VHF Radio.

Cable is a closed system where the content is entirely decided by your Cable Provider. Unlike Radio, TV Aerial or a Satellite Dish, you can't even connect at all without a subscription.

Any attempt to get channels from a package you didn't pay for is a criminal offence in Ireland, Theft of Service.
