I use a freesat box and a HD satellite receiver and dish from b&q £40 for German channel's  f1 and motogp sorted.
Wouldn't use sky again

[Bigron]

My Sky deal includes fibre-based broadband and TV, along with all telephone calls. The latter SWMBO would sorely miss, as she lives on the telephone, so I dare not change provider - unless anyone knows different?

Ooh .. tempted; I miss Car SOS since I dumped all the Virgin channels (it's on one of the Discovery network channels).. I'll have to have a look at the packages.

A lot of people buy, binge all the content then cancel. Wait ~3 or 4 months for content to build
up again. Buy and binge and cancel....

Thanks Mark - will keep an eye out for deals - but got to the age now that the free stuff is actually enough plus Netflix which has a reasonable amount of films etc plus stuff for the grandkids. Add Netflix to EETV cost thus making £45 a month including Fibre and Calls which is acceptable.

I did check - no Car SOS It's on Nat Geo now, and that's not on Now TV. Boo.

Did you find any way of working out what IS on now TV? Damned if I can.

So anything I can watch on my current sky package?
Except Car SOS.

Almost... Some channels we don't have. Movies it's everything on Sky, the entertainment pack is a bit trimmed down compared to Sky.

Depends what you want to watch?

NOW TV also offer broadband, phone etc.... you get same hardware delivered just with NOW TV stamped on it.

I'll watch car SOS and tell you all what happens

It's always the same, they find an old car. They tell the owner it's going somewhere (when they clearly know where it's really gone)

Fix it up, some cringeworthy TV from the chap who finds all the bits. They "struggle" to get it done on time, but always looks spot on when they reveal it.

Owner then attempts to look surprised.
