Maplins HD Freesat £159

[OddBod82]

I have just picked up a flyer from Maplins with a Freesat kit offering 250 free channels and some Full HD 1080p quality broadcast's. Here is a link...

(note:1080p claim is on flyer and not website!?)

Now I for one am a little confused as to the liklihood of this being true. There are on Maplins website for example, other satellite kits that offer access to foreign channels, and I was thinking is that what may be getting confused here eg it will give us access to foreign SD and HD broadcast's? Or can I really pay £160 quid and get 250 SD+HD channels?

Can anyone clarify this for me, as the staff in Maplins were useless.
Thanks

You wouldnt get Sky channels apart from freebies but you would get BBC HD, CH4 HD and any other new freeview ones.
