TV hasn't been bought yet, but the owner would ideally want it running only by WiFi, as they didn't make a provision to have cables available to it (wall mounted). There's new Freely, which sounds ideal, but is limited to certain TV models - Hisense and Bush, for example. Then there's Freeview Play, but true 'live' still…

Mobiles calls from my number but not made by me.
A couple of weeks ago my mobille rang and when I answered the person asked who I was. I asked them who they were and they said that I had rung them as my number had come up as a missed call.
