Yes it would and also other shows with the names in the title E.T.C ( Also the ones with Chicago and Bears in the title ). So you could end up with shows that you may have missed and shows that you will never known have been on due to suggestions ( If you give it the thumbs up during the showing ):erm:

Does this mean it will record nature programs too about Bears in Chicago and any adult programmes about a different kind of 'Bears' in Chicago? :D:D

Not sure about the adult programmes:erm: But if you give the thumbs up it will record things on the style of programmes and also the words in the title as well?

This is by far the best news. Many thanks DF for posting.

Could I just clarify that the purchase price can be paid via the normal direct debit bill rather than Debit card upfront?

Just needs the keyword in the description or programme name :)

You can select genres, so "Sports" in this instance for your WishList

I'm hoping to get the pre-sale offer Tivo and already have 2 v+ boxes installed. Do you have any idea if I can keep both of the V+ boxes, have one of the V+s moved to another room and the Tivo plugged into the 'old' v+ location. So the engineer will sort of 'install' one of my current v+ into a new location as opposed to the Tivo?

Could this still qualify for the April 'free install'?:confused:

The sales team would be able to help you (on the 11th)... I don't see why not. :)

Having not pre-registered, am I in for the £150 connection or install (whatever it was marked as) fee? Really can't see myself paying £3 (only VIP 20) plus that which is a shame.

It will go on to your bill, rather than credit card. we will make sure your credit limit is adjusted so it doesn't cause account issues.

some of you will get an email to book online and some will be directed to a special pre-sales orderline, this is because some of you have complicated billing arrangements! :)

Install is free in April, so you are getting that knocked off.

VIP's (50 & 100 only)are getting the TiVo monthly charge waived. It will appear on the bill, but you will get a bigger discount to cover.

now stop moaning!!!!! :cool: :D

There is also more deals around additonal outlets, but you'll need to speak to sales or see this in the ordering process online :)

THanks for this information.

I currently have BB 30mb, Phone and TV (the free one) as part of the package. WHen i spoke to retentions about coming back to 50mb and XL TV for everything BB & TV they said do it on the day you order Tivo and they can work it out for me rather than me upgrading to 50mb now. I will also be keeping the other box in the other room when I come back from sky for my main lounge tv service.

To qualify for the free install and the £3 a month off deal do I need to be already on the 50mb service with XL TV or can I do it on the day?

Thanks.
