I suspect this will be sorted soon as the repercussions for VM and UKTV are major.

If VM provided us with a Freeview service (just as you can watch live tv on Now TV) with an on demand option, there would be no need for Virgin to include UKTV channels within its EPG. Just go to livetv and watch it that way, or alternatively VM could do a deal with Freesat. I'm surprised that hasn't happened already, actually.

Actually it surprising what you can get with an indoor aerial. I'm not in a particularly strong signal area, but if you get a cheap aerial, position right near a window it will pick a lot of freeview up. Fortunately still also have the main aerial on the house, bleeding gigantic thing it is too, the birds love it !
