In areas where the ANALOGUE signal is still being transmitted (and assuming your cable hasn't been disconnected at the Cab to make way for a paying customer's) some channels (Beeb 1,2, ITV, CH4, 5 and a few others) are sent unencrypted which allows TVs with enough of a frequency search range to display them.
