When the BBC started launching ‘digital channels’ as they were once known (like BBC 3) these were also available to us on analogue UHF this way. Occasionally cable-only channels were also receivable, like L!ve TV, which wasn’t much of a bonus TBH.

The adapter I meant was just to change the cable connector from screw to rf :-) it was the same for us too. The NTL wall boxes had a separate FM connector you could use on your amp
