Nice, I think it was playing wih 'elvis' that brought me here in the first place. Mind ive got sky these days so not much use, good for the bedroom though.

if its to do with sKY i can t see them using the same crappy card system as itv/on digi used
they got more cash/resources than any other co.
so i wouldnt count my eggs.
