If you've just picked up a Freeview Box then you're in for a treat! You'll instantly receive a host of brilliant channels, all for the monthly cost of £0.

Freeview boxes are the future of television viewing in Great Britain as we count slowly down to the day when analogue signals are going to be turned off. This date is still years away, but it's important that as many people make the changeover as soon as possible, as it means the service will enjoy better selection of channels, and customer service.

Tuning in the Freeview Television box is easy, with most channels popping in automatically. Here is a list of everything you can receive through the box at no extra cost:
