Moving house and new home won't have cable so won't be able to take my V+ box with me. It's a grade 2 listed building so don't think they'll allow a sat dish. Will really miss being able to record a whole series at once. Anyone know what my options are now? Got freeview on my Toshiba telly. Thanks for any advice.

    I remember discussing with an aerial guy the choice of Sky, and he talked about being able to find a garden location for it. Don't know if that is possible in you instance but might be worth a shout.

    Hmm thats an idea flying...to be honest something i'd totally forgotten...a while ago we ran a sky dish from a pole in the garden with varied results...not ideal but it did work for a while till we moved to where we had allowance for a dish to be fitted
