At the moment its little more than 80 or so fta channels and a new series of boxes with new epg systems on them.

The only nice thing that I have found is the BBC HD channel, but it is not on that much, not with programs anyway, but the Chelsea Flower Show was very good, the flowers were out of this world. ITV HD is doing nothing, except for the champions league final and even then you needed to hit the red button twice, green twice and the blue once, to get it and it was over before I found out about the button sequence. It is a pain that other boxes can receive ITV HD and the freesat boxes can't do so yet. I am not very impressed with freesat at the moment, but at least it can't get any worse.

Very best regards Wez
