No chance whatsoever without a very big dish indeed - You are looking at well over 3m for the BBC channels in Bulgaria.
 
Ok so no bbc/itv can we get the rest of freeview please help b g tv is awfull.

can get hotbird/astra1e and bulsat brought sky freeveiw card but the local satman sez that sky turned it off.

Presumably you mean Freesatas Freeview is the service off the transmitter network.

The problem you have is that all the most interesting Freesat channels BBC / ITV / Channel 4 / Channel 5 all transmit off Astra 2D :D

To be honest you are better off either paying for a crippled Sky UK service (as you wont get lots of the pay channels either) or subscribing to something like Sky Italia which carries many of the entertainment channels with English soundtracks..

On the other hand, you might be in with a chance for the national BBC radio channels, which are broadcast on a different beam (except for Radio 5Live and Sports Extra). I know of someone in Moscow who is reliably receiving them on a 90cm dish.
