    Hi,
    Can anyone advise me please.
    I am cancelling my NTL UPC account.
    My television is a Sony Bravia bought in 2008, so I probably need to contact Sony to find out if its digital?
    I have no aerial and I recently bought in Aldi the Tevion 48 Element Digital TV aerial kit but have not yet set it up as my NTL will end 16th Dec.
    What are my options?
    Do I install Tevion Kit and buy free to air for extra channels or buy a combi box or what?
    Can anyone help?

    There is a chance that it is able to display the Saorview channels. I bought my Sony tv in 2008 and it works just fine for Irish digital tv.

    Got my Sony V4500 in early 2008, works OK for the saorview channels. Depends on the model no.

    First get the aerial installed and find out if the TV will receive the Saorview channels.

    For the UK channels you'll require a satellite dish and either a combi terrestrial/satellite STB or a standalone Freesat or FTA satellite receiver.

    Not compatible with Saorview, Saorview STB required with that TV.
