Which TV guide do you use?

Which TV guide do Tiscali TV subscribers buy?
Like Radio times, TV choice etc etc?

I just use tvtv.co.uk on the Web. More accessible and you don't need to remember to pick it up at Waitrose (other supermarkets are available!).

I don't buy a TV guide - a combination of the EPG and the listings in the free evening papers (London Lite/London Paper) is good enough for me.

I'd highly recommend DigiGuide - an electronic guide you install on your PC/laptop:

- excellent search functions
- listings are weeks in advance (e.g. SkyArts is currently listed up to 30th April)
- various ways of viewing the listings
- quick
- can set up favourite programmes to build a daily "My TV"
- includes all the channels you could imagine
- very clear and understandable
- good customer support

Price is about £10 per year - negligible compared to Radio Times, etc. & far more useful. In particular, it's great to be able to get detail about programmes on radio or some of the more obscure TV channels that are often overlooked by the magazines.

I use the online guide on the radio times website, if you set up a (free) account you can set it to only show you 'your' channels, you can also sort it to show you the channels in any order you want, (i have mine set to show me the freeview channels at the top and the 'tiscali only' channels below that)

I didn't know that, thanks

Thanks for the tip, never realised that!

I am not with Tiscali anymore, but when I was I found this site most helpful:

www.tvguide.co.uk


You can actually adjust the guide to your own specifications (and it does have an option so you only see the channels available on Tiscali, Virgin Media, BT Vision etc). Also it's 100% free. Why waste an tenner when you can have this little beauty on your bookmarks!!!

Hope you find that helpful.
