Thanks very much to both replies  - very helpful information - I can now make an informed decision on what to do. Miju

I currently receive French TV quite successfully through a normal ariel, but cannot get a good picture on Arte which  I think has some of the best programmes.  I would like to be able to watch some UK free to air TV such as the BBC and still watch the French channels.  Does anyone know what satellite dish I would need to get both French channels and some free to air UK stuff.  I have never had a satellite dish so don't know anything about them.  Can you receive some channels through an ariel and some through a satellite dish? (probably a stupid question to those in the know!) Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
