Hi Andy as you can see from the list I've included below, there are plenty of FTA-sat-channels to choose from when you do not subscribe to sky. however, you only get the really intresting stuf with a subscription, imho., most of the FTA-channels that are availeble really are not that exciting. Regarding Audio description, according to my knolledge, this service are only availeble on bbc, I-tv, channel four and five. None of the other FTA-channels carry this service. list follows: ENTERTAINMENT 101 BBC 1 102 BBC 2 103 ITV 1 115 BBC Three 116 BBC Four 118 ITV 2 119 ITV 3 120 ITV 4 131 Men & Motors 135 S4C (C4 Wales) 137 Life TV 138 Life 24 139 Life Showcase 146 Sumo TV 148 BEN 150 Zone Reality 151 Zone Reality +1 hour 152 Zone Reality X 159 OBE 163 Hollywood TV 165 Bonanza 173 Open Access 2 181 Information TV 182 Information TV 2 183 Passion TV 187 Raj TV 193 Rapture TV 195 Propeller 199 Eat Cinema 203 Channel M 205 TTV 2 207 Five US 209 Five Life 211 ITV 2 +1 hour 213 ITV 3 +1 hour 215 Legal TV 217 Fame TV LIFESTYLE & CULTURE 261 Travel Channel 262 Travel Channel +1 hour 271 Performance 273 Fashion TV 279 Real Estate TV 281 Wine TV 285 Baby Channel 287 Overseas Property TV MOVIES 315 Film4 316 Film4 +1 321 Zone Horror 322 Zone Thriller 323 True Movies 324 True Movies 2 325 Movies4Men 327 Movies4Men 2 MUSIC 355 Chart Show TV 356 The Vault 357 B4 359 Classic FM TV 360 channel U 361 Fizz 368 Redemption TV 370 R Music TV 372 Just Fabulous 374 Bubble Hits SPORT 423 Golf Channel 427 Wrestling Channel 444 All In Sport 446 Real Madrid TV NEWS 501 Sky News 503 BBC News 24 504 BBC Parliament 506 CNN 507 S4C 2 509 EuroNews 511 CCTV-9 514 Al Jazeera Eng DOCUMENTARIES 539 Community Channel 547 Business Channel CHILDREN'S 616 CBBC Channel 617 CBeebies 619 POP 620 Tiny Pop 624 CITV SHOPPING 630 QVC 631 iBuy TV 632 iBuy TV 2 633 TV Shop 634 Ideal World 635 price-drop.tv 636 Pitch TV 637 Thomson TV 638 Simply Shopping 639 Best Direct 640 Jewellery Channel 641 Simply Ideas 642 TV Warehouse 1 643 TV Warehouse 644 bid tv 645 Thomas Cook 646 Gems.tv 647 Pitch TV Plus 648 Best Direct+ 649 Shop on TV 650 Thane Direct 651 TV Warehouse Select 652 Vector 24/7 653 Stop + Shop 654 Price Crash 655 Speedauction TV 656 Shop Vector + 657 eeZee TV 658 Ideal Vitality 659 Sky Travel Shop 660 Gems.tv 2 661 Create & Craft 662 Teletext Holidays 663 Broadband UK 664 Golf Pro-Shop 666 Max TV 670 U Save TV 675 Broadband UK2 676 Celebrity Shop 677 Deal TV 678 Price Crash 2 679 Cyprus Direct 680 Look4Less TV 681 Price Busters 682 Entrepreneur TV CHRISTIAN 760 GOD Channel 761 GOD UK 762 Wonderful 763 TBN Europe 764 Daystar 765 Revelation 766 UCB TV 767 Inspiration Network 768 Loveworld TV 769 EWTN 770 Gospel Channel 771 Word Network FOREIGN LANGUAGE 781 B4U Music 785 PCNE Chinese 787 mta - muslim tv 789 Zee Music 791 Bangla TV 793 MATV National 795 PTV Prime 799 Al Jazeera 804 Abu Dhabi TV 807 Venus TV 809 Apna Bazaar 810 Record TV (Brazil) 813 Islam Channel 814 Channel 'S' 815 GEO UK 817 DM Digital 819 ARY Oneworld 820 ARY QTV 821 Vectone 2U 822 DM Gold 823 ARY The Musik 824 AAG 825 Unity Muslim 826 Channel S NTV 827 Channel S ATN 828 Channel Punjab 829 STAR One 830 STAR Gold GAMING & DATING 840 iPlay 841 Gala TV 842 Fortune Fever 843 PokerZone 847 Vegas 24/7 848 Jackpot TV 849 Big Game TV!
