    BT Vision is delivered via Freeview so you need an aerial as well as your internet connection for the YouView services.
    You could continue to use your \Sky box for FTA channels, assuming you have a spare HDMI port.
    That gum you like is coming back in style.

    As with many others, your original post left out vital detail-I don't see any aggression in Penrhyn's post; merely frustration that you didn't say what equipment you had in the first place.:)

    You can also get bt sport free through the old sky box as a bt broadband customer. That is unless you are going to have infinity and then you can get it through that platform.
