In my case it's an extra £3.00 a month making £36.00
I've taken to recording programmes for our children from Rai Scuola; there is a lot of English-language material (ostensibly for learning English) broadcast there. Plus of course they watch children's programmes on BBC3 and 4 and sometimes CITV. BBC programming for children is far superior to what is available on French TV, which seems to be 90% Inspector Gadget.We pay more than double that, but I have told the wife to cancel some packages we are paying for movies and kids programmes, we don't watch the movies, we use the raspberry for that, and the grandkids only come once a week .
I'm going back to Virgin, free Tivo box with the basic TV pack and its still cheaper than i am paying BT for just phone and broadband.
Sky charge us £8.50 for movies so kids and discovery channels we have wont be much more, i will be getting a foreign sports sub in the coming months, I will just continue to pay sky there money, but thanks for the suggestion .@martin-f , why don't you get a foreign sub for Discovery / History ... pay maybe less than £10 a month ... and keep Freesat as well .
I wish I could get Virgin (behave
what package are you thinking of? As I am thinking of telling Sky where to stick it's price hike. 99% of what I wath is on freesat. And as I have 2 properties I have to pay the tv license twice!!@martin-f , why don't you get a foreign sub for Discovery / History ... pay maybe less than £10 a month ... and keep Freesat as well .

TBH Martin you can get most if not all Disco/NatGeo stuff on Kodi using the Genesis plugin (even has on demand listings that mirror Sly movies so if Ghost is half way thru on Sly movies oldies it'll start it from the begining)
I'm ready to give VM (and tv licensing) the boot and get by with just Kodi/Plex and ondemand content but I'm having a hard time convincing her in doors its a good idea ditching Tivo haha
PS. Notice how they are going up early this year, usually this happens in September. Hope they don't plan another one then!
