freeview boxes

Anyone viewing TV with a set top box, can you watch interactive programes on E4? E.G. when Big Brother was on.

Not tried it on E4 but it certainly worked for the interactive channels showing the tennis because I bought a Wharfedale Freeview box the other week from Argos specifically so that my wife could watch the tennis via BBC and "press red button"; this worked fine.

Thank you for that. I have found that the BBC etc works OK It seems only E4 there is problem. I only have Freeview built in to our TV so I was wondering if any set top box user has been more successful.

I think you'll find that the interactive operation on Freeview is mainly restricted to BBC and some ITV channels. Certainly where programmes like Big Brother or I'm a Celebrity etc are involved only satellites allow interaction.
