Currently with Sky, but everything is in my brother's name.
Looking around for other deals and I have found TalkTalk. I don't know much about them, but they seem to fit what I am wanting more than the other supplies.
I want basic basic TV, but would like the kids' channels.
TalkTalk seem to do Plus TV for £10 a month (I chose this as I like the idea of recording TV still).
Add on £16.70 for line rental.
Add on £5 for kids' channels.
So £31.70 which seems cheaper than anything I could get with Sky who said I had to just the variety bundle if I wanted kids' channels, but I didn't want the whole heap of other channels.
Does this sound right? And I get broadband as well, albeit not super speed.

A couple of people I know have been with Talk Talk and don't rate them much at all.
One had nothing but problems with her talk talk broadband0 -
Why don't you give NowTV a try? Comes with Nickelodeon and Disney Channel live tv and on demand and Sky 1, Sky Atlantic, MTV, Comedy Central etc.
You can pick up NowTV box for £10 at the moment with 3 months free trial. Works well combined with freeview.0 -
I would strongly advise you to avoid TalkTalk if you would like to keep your sanity. They are the worst company I have ever had to deal with. Their customer service is shocking, it seems like everything they do or say is designed to increase your stress levels. Thanks to the recent price hikes I have managed to get out of my contract 6 months early, though that has not been the easiest process in the wrold.0
