UK Gold on Freeview
I have freeview and on the EPG it comes up with UK Gold and lists the programmes- however when I try and watch the channel it says "Conditional Access limits viewing this programme."
Anyone have any suggestions as to how I can watch it or how to change the settings so I have that access?

A top up card may work in it if it has a card slot.
Some allow you to use a special 'CAM' card but these days it's part of Top Up TV which is downloads the programmes to a special Top Up TV box.
So in the short answer it wouldn't be worth the £9.99 a month even if your box was capable as it's only on for a few hours a day
Alternatively, subscribe to Sky satellite TV from £16.50 pm for 1 set of stations, or £17.50 pm for 2 sets! Sky installation £30, with a £15 refund subsequently if ordered online.
I thought 1 mix was £17 or is this the vat difference taking effect ?
Maybe it's testing the water for a GOLD launch taking over Dave Ja Vu and finally leaving Top Up TV?
even tho it is all ancient repeats with 30 mins of adverts in a typical 2hour slot they still expect you to cough up dosh to watch it.
They have put GOLD programming on Dave now Yesterday. Only as matter of time before GOLD comes and the space on TUTV is reused for ESPN 2.
Same here. IIRC that was it's purpose when it was created, I wonder why they dropped this format.
It's not on Freeview; it's on TUTV.
However this time I managed to watch the last 10mins of one Foot in the Grave before the screen changed to a notice saying call this number for top-up TV.
That was a nice surprise, it hasn't happened since though
Cheers

G.O.L.D on freeview is a paid service from Top Up TV and over time it has become to have less hours. for full hours of the channel with +1 Virgin & Sky .

Pretty sure it wasn't in the clear, I remember it being soft encrypted with Videocrypt.
