Lend us a fiver, your lordship.
Most of the people I know with Sky are clinically obese and smell of fried onions.

I thought 85-90% of homes had freeview now.

That's the most arrogant, condescending post I've ever read.

It doesn't matter now we've seen it - SKY viewers are welcome to it!

I'm not sure that it's as high as that aaron. I seem to remember Ofcom saying it was 73%, although that was about 18 months ago, so it is probably more than 73% now but maybe not as high as your figure.

Quite a few regions have done the whole 'complete' switchover from analogue in the last year and a half. People have been heavily encouraged to get Freeview boxes if they want to keep watching TV, so it wouldn't surprise me if we were in the high 80s by now. I can't say that with any authority though
