Sorry I got you confused Ethel it cost about £20 for a Nowtv box plus remote, as well as this we got 4 free days to be taken any time of sport, entertainment or films from Sky.
I only had BBC Iplayer on our tv so buying the Nowtv box gave me all the Catch up programmes, plus, if I am prepared to buy it in some Sky TV programmes as well.
I tend to choose a week of tennis (or any sport you want) for £10.99. This way I can access Sky without paying a regular subscription or having a satellite dish. If I choose only to watch catch up I pay nothing extra.
I have a recorder which records Freeview. It is called a Humax PVR (personal video recorder), however I can only record from Freeview, not Nowtv. If you went into any big store you can pick up a PVR, not necessarily a Humax one.
Last weekend, in Rutland, the first statue in Britain of the late Elizabeth II was unveiled.
