    They could be worse.
    After dish-ing out this question your viewing whilst sat in front of the TV will be feature lite until you get a Satellite dish.
    Sorry but it was too tempting :p
    Realistically if you haven't bought it yet, how much later are you going to get the dish, can you get one for your building ie permission. If not are you paying more for something you won't use?

    But if he bought the TV any way, he would be FREE to VIEW whatever he wanted ...

    If you line a dustbin lid with Bacofoil and point it in a Westerly direction with an elevation of about 5 degrees,it should be fine.

    Other brands of metallic foil are available.

    Do you by chance, work for Sky TV?;)

    Since when has Sky ever given advice for free?

    Sky even charges you money through a premium rate number while you're sitting in its telephone queue to sort out something that Sky itself has screwed-up. :(

    Don't laugh at banana republics. :rotfl:

    As a result of how you voted in the last three General Elections,
    you'd now be better off living in one.

    Very true, they even charge, via their 0844 scam number, to activate a card that you have already paid £20 for.

    Rumour has it their training officer is a Mr Richard Turpin.;)

    Another SATisfied reader, even if the posts were LITE on content. Still, it is FREE advice, and the post has had a few VIEWs. :rotfl:
