    No mate you cant scan a Virgin Box..

    Its not ITV in Northern Ireland or Scotland its UTV and STV..

    UTV & STV have not submitted any plans to ITV for HD provisions..

    I suggest you make a complaint to UTV

        he's not on sky... if you were to read the post it will show you that he has Virgin Cable..

        You need a HD receiver to view it on satellite.. not just any non sky receiver

            If you do get a Freesat HD box then you need to access it via ITV London on Channel 977 or on Sky HD follow this..

                I had myself a crying session with utv over the lack of a hd channel via virgin, they are in negotiation with virgin on that very question. But alas it won't happen before the world cup if its to happen at all. Same goes for scotland for those who are interested.I even had the cheek to ask virgin if they would re tune my box to a English region they still pissing themselves laughing.
