Also gives you all the radio channels and a host of other odds and ends (some odder than other it has to be said).
If you want Freesat itself you need to go back to the UK (or get someone to do it for you) and buy and actual Freesat box, this will give you the same channels but with a better EPG and the interactive stuff will all work logically (which it may well not do on a Bricowhatever box).
There are some software issues with the new Freesat boxes and they seem to be in short supply in some places, so you could always get your dish working with the Bricowhatever box and enjoy that until the dust settles.
At the moment it does look like if you want all the HD stuff then a Freesat box may be necessary but to be honest I don't think anyone's sure about that yet.
If I haven't covered everything then please ask!

Many thanks Martin. The BBCs Free sat sounds the way to go. I'd love a HD PVR, even if its just to skip the adverts - but it'll be a cost driven thing.!!
Dont know quite what the poster with 2 PVRs and 200 ++ hrs of recording time does with it all !! I thought one of the reasons for moving to France was to do other things than watch TV !!
On a tech note Martin, Whats the satellite for Free sat and its angle of dangle ? Any special needs for dish / LNB ? Thanks
