What would the cheapest way be of getting BBC Prime? I know it's on numerous packages on multiple satellites.. Showtime, Canaal Netherlands, TV Cabo etc. What is the cheapest/easiest way of receiving this? And how much is it DTH via BBC itself? ..and is BBC Entertainment on Cyfrowy Polsat the same as BBC Entertainment in say, Asia.. as the schedules look different? | ||

Blog Entries: 1 My System: Sky UK. FTA analogue & digital satellite from 6 fixed dishes (5E/7E/9E/10E/13E/16E/ 19E/23E/28E) Pace MSS100, Echostar IP3000VA, Technomate TM-1000D, Dreambox 7020S ![]() The last noble sat warrior to fly the olden flag of Analogue | Its not possible to subscribe to BBC Prime direct in the UK so the only route is to find a cheap foreign subscription package that carries it. Its not very exciting really - virtually every time Ive seen it old episodes of bloody Eastenders has been on! | ||

Its much like different programmes being available on versions of Eurosport even within Europe. Providers are now very good at tailoring programmes for individual audiences. | ||

My System: Dreambox 7020Si receiver, PLi image loaded and Irdeto and Viaccess cards installed. Dishes for Nilesat + Hotbird with lnb's for BADR and Eurobird 9 | I agree, why would anyone in the UK want to subscribe to BBC Prime?? Even the oldest BBC repeats on the UK channels are more up to date than BBC Prime. | ||
