Freeview TV guide magazine?
 
Which printed magazine is the best TV guide for Freeview?

I find that making daily printouts from www.tvtv.co.uk is too time
consuming, and printouts never use page space as efficiently as a
printed magazine anyway.

Radio Times is OK for all the major Freeview channels. BBC3, BBC4, ITV2,
ITV3, E4 and More4 are all shown on the same pages as the 'analogue'
channels, with Ftn, ABC1, UKTV History and BBC Parliament on the next page,
with a red Freeview logo. CBBC and CBeebies are with the other kids'
channels.

Radio Times seems to be pretty comprehensive for Freeview channels and all
clearly highlighted as Freeview to make them stand out against the others. I
think it is probably the most expensive too. If you are at all interested in
radio programmes then I'd say its the only choice really as extensive radio
listings also given. Can't say I've actually looked at any of the others for
a while so they may have improved their coverage but for me it's Radio
Times.

Not what you are asking but worth highlighting anyway, is the Radio
Times website. It is excellent and allows you to pick and choose
channels and the order and format in which they are displayed and
personally I stopped buying a paper guide when I discovered this site as
it would just stay unopened.

I use it exclusively on-line so I do not know if they have a printout
facility and if they do, whether it is any good.

Thanks Max and John for suggesting the Radio Times. That'll do. It seems
that it covers all Freeview channels that have a programme schedule with
the exception of Men and Motors. Dunno why they've left that one out.
