Hi when we move to oz can anyone tell me if my other half can get a satellite dish to watch all the rubish she watches here? Is it possible and how much? I will go along with it for a couple of years just to help her setle in as she has never been there thanks.

well you are in for a big shock cause the eastenders you get on foxtel is very behind - you will have to keep updated via the internet I use to luuuv the show but I dont even miss it now - get up to other more exciting things in the evening

Hi
you can get similar to Sky over here (not Sky+ though) but to be honest you don't need it.
1. There's loads of other things to do...
2. Take the opportunity to improve your quality of life.... evening classes, take up art, fishing or 'do sport' etc.
3. A lot of the better (addictive) telly is readily available on free TV at reasonable hours.
or alternatively you could spends endless hours surfing the net....

Personally I would suggest doing without for a while, life is much better without it.

Most Foxtel here seems to be through cable and set-top box, no need for a dish.
Do a search on Foxtel on the forum, and you will find loads of threads. Even if you have other stuff to do, its nice to have the TV to fall back on, and if you get the UKTV channel on Foxtel you get so much British stuff she'llthink she's back home!!
