More questions

Which BBC One and ITV1 do you get in Wales?
BBC Wales (Wales Today) on BBC One, and ITV Cymru Wales on ITV1, depending on which transmitter your aerial faces. S4C, the Welsh-language channel, takes channel 4 on Freeview in Wales; Channel 4 moves further up the list.
Can I watch my local clubs live?
Most games of Cardiff City, Swansea City, Wrexham and the rest are shown on the channels that hold the rights, apart from Saturday 3pm kick-offs, which nobody in the UK may show live. The list on this page gives each game’s UK channel.
Does IPTV work in rural parts of Wales?
It needs broadband rather than an aerial, so it works wherever your line manages about 10 Mbps for each screen in use. Try the free 24-hour trial at your usual viewing times before paying.
