    I just moved into a new flat without a TV aeriel but it has 2 sky cables...
    Question 1... Will a freesat box work with a sky dish?
    Question 2... You can buy a box in Argos for £60, is it any good?
    I don`t want SKY any more as Norwich have only been on telly 1 or 2 times and the free streams at 3pm are pretty good now...

    1. Yes. The two cables will allow you to watch one program and record another.
    2. I don't know. Not seen the box for £60, but if it's the cheapest then it is probably worth avoiding. I would personally be looking more mid-range in terms of price to ensure it's a good quality. All depends on if you want all the functions like pause, rewind and record.

    I have freesat on my TV and haven't used it once.

    But it will work if you connect it up to a dish

    1. Yes, I assume it is a duel cable? if so that will be for recording.
    2. Don't have a clue.

    I would have thought the freeviw box should work but if i was you i would buy one on line. From what i can make out Jeremy clarkson said that as public workers spend all their time looking at catalogues and going shopping he wants to shoot everyone who works in shops as well - it could be a bit dangerous.
