Sky + in Europe by
Steve
I don't know much about Sky Plus.
Can you use it in Europe ?
Am I right in assuming that the main advantage is the 2-tuner feature ?

Ralph Ferneyhough

channels so it just becomes one block of nine channels, does this mean
that the Movies only count as one premium channel and therefore no
longer qualify for the free Sky+ service?
Hope not...

Sopranos & E4 - advice, please! by
Clem Dye
I'm a big fan of the Sopranos and have religiously watched all four
series so far on E4. However, I seem to watch next to nothing on $ky
these days (the third series of Six Feet Under is pretty dire, IMO, and
the latest series of Stargate SG-1 on $ky One seems pretty tired too),
so with that in...
