Chris.SE: My set was new in 2009, so I may need to buy a new tv. That also would include the TV in the bedroom! Just wondering if 5Select is worth it, but thanks for explaining.

Audrey Haywood: No need to buy a new TV at all, just get a Freeview HD box for 40 and plug it into a HDMI socket on your existing TV.

I like 5 Select and did enjoy 1000 years of Scotland's History.

My son is a teacher at an International school in China.
Could you email the programme, which I can then email out to David ?

I know that BBC i/Player cannot be sent to China....What is the position of 5 Select ?
I can send & receive emails this is why if you could send the programme about Scotland, I could email i to my son ?
Many thanks,
Stan Russel.
me ?
Thank you,
Stan Russell.

Stan Russell:

5 Select is a Channel 5 sister channel. This is not their website and they are very unlikely to see your comment here (never mind do anything about it!).

You'd be best contacting Channel 5 about how to get/see copies of the programme.

I don't know which Platform you believe you are referring to there. Whilst there are many things on this site that are out of date as the site owner has not had time to keep up with all the changes - primarily the Freeview 700MHz Clearance - (as has been said many time on various pages around these boards) - the listing at the top of this page is currently correct.
The only platform that has never been listed here is Virgin Media and 5Select is on 152 there at time of posting.
