Hi, and welcome.

Sky in Spain is not necessarily a pain. It depends on what part of Spain you are in and whether you can do without Astra 2D, which carries most of the UK Terrestrial channels.

A lot of the Sky encrypted channels are available without a huge dish though.

Have a look on http://www.lyngsat.com/28east.html

another useful site to you may be

It doesnt matter if you go for Freesat or Sky - the dish is the important bit, and if you tell us where you live (nearest big city) we will tell you what size dish you will need to watch BBC & ITV.
