National TV is on my 16E Channel List, but I can't say I've ever watched it - What sort of stuff are we talking about? Film? Documentary? Ab Fab? ( )

Seems to be a good film every night about ten. I think I have seen AB FAb -give it a watch. I' m pretty sure the other channels will scramble - cinemania etc - but i don't think National will.

National TV is Romanian - it always seems to be showing ladies in national dress prancing round the studio to folk music when I hop onti it!

You're thinking of FavoritTV
SuperTV on 16E is showing a British comedy just now.

Yes, Favorit TV is part of the package of three. From our point of view only National TV is of any interest. Looks like this package is here to stay.

Try some of the German radio and TV channels on Astra 1 - some broadcast in Dolby Digital - I have the correct gear for this - can also speak German - the sound is brilliant. Even if you can't speak German try the radio channels - it is mainly classical channels in DD but super sound.

Arirang has appeared on 19E.

For those folks who dont know Arirang, they are Korean with much English programming.

Here's a new one:

Telstar 11150 V 19275

Called E! (or Eeeh, where I come from)

English/American "Entertainment"

Not seen too much of it yet, so can't do more than report it's presence.

Found - probably just a test. Try channel 1 - 12608 H 19279 - strange channel with Arabic educational stuff mixed with English based entertainment - music and movies - picture quality not always brilliait but some of the movies are quite new, although obviously downloads or copies- this is als on Telstar

Hellas Sat - now 12523H 28994 - looks like a Bulgarian bouquet - all FTA at the moment - probably won't last long.
Astra 3 - according to the teletext the Premiership game Aston Villa is on free to air at lunchtime - bet they scramble it.
