SKY and ITV2 and ITV3?

Hi,
Cancelled my subscription about six months ago. After this I was not able to view ITV2 with my old sky card.

Fiddling last night I noticed that I am able to get both these channels now??
Have SKY changed their policy or is this a "Free period" to get customers back??


Thanks

ITV3 is probably going to be FTA for the duration.
ITV2 is currently FTV due to the fact the contract between SKY and ITV has lapsed but negotiations are still ongoing.

If you really want to watch re-runs of the current ITV soaps and "I stole from the Queen, therefore I'm a celebrity let me out of here" then yes you can watch ITV2 and ITV3. Personally I would rather have the old Granada channel back !

I'm watching HACK on ITV3, already seen Karen Sisco but it's nice to have another outlet for US drama. Not the least bit interested in anything else ITV is churning out at the mo although I hope they make better use of the extra capacity for F1 coverage next year.
