Has anybody else tried this new service? It's great You can watch a huge selection of programs that have been on TV over the past week at any time you want, you can even pause, fast forward or rewind them!!! and the best thing is it's free

Just watched sundays episode of Top Gear again. I would love that Zonda, just make sure i stay away from french car parks lol!!!

I hear that it's better because there's the possibilty of recording two programs at once whilst you watch another but on Sky+ you can only watch 1 and record 1.

Yeah, preselected. Not that much content at the minute but the nice feature is movies on demand that start when you want not sky's 15min intervals.

You don't have to wait till 10 o'clock for "Adult" content either. (so I heard some bloke in the pub saying...)

Teleport is the video on demand service - free to telewest customers and you can view stuff that's been on the tv for the last 7 days.

TVDrive is telewest's equivalent to SKY+ which is due to be launched int he next few months.

From what i've used of teleport .. it;s great. will be better when they include more channels .
