leslie rainer: UKTV are not going to put their channels on Freesat, they are subscription services on satellite. If you want to watch Dave, Really, Drama and Yesterday for free, Freeview is the only option.

Will Wren: The best you are going to get is an return to the "Border TV" service on ITV.
There are no plans at all for a "Channel 8". The only service with planning frequencies is for Carlisle and that will be in the opposite direction from the transmitter to you.

Mike Dimmick: Thanks for that excellent post, which clarified what I posted.
Just wish to add, on the subject of "repeats" during peak that BBC One repeats are currently 8.4%, but will rise to 10% due to DQF.
I see that certain publications have use the "63%" figure. However, given that BBC Two daytime is now a repeats zone due to DQF and that BBC three and FOUR are designed to show programmes to watch at different times.
BBC One and Two overnight show programmes again, but with signing and this, by an "all hours" measure (compared peak) the percentage rises.
