BT Vision Self-Install, £30
It's official - terrestrial TV is rubbish. BT's Vision service offers over 70 TV and radio stations plus a massive library of programmes available on demand. If you're a BT customer, £30 gets you a self-install package with no subscription and a pair of Comtrend Powerline Adaptors that plug into wall power sockets and carry the TV signal via the domestic power circuit.
