Can anyone advise me on what kit I would have to get to watch Eurosport (preferably free!) from a static caravan in the UK? I already subscribe via SKY at home but I always miss a few stages when the missus drags me off to our sited caravan in Norfolk.

    Maybe watching online with the Eurosport player would be the best best although would cost about £3 for the month also depends on having an internet connection. Other than that finding a pub that is showing it.

    Use your existing dish, receiver and viewing card. All you would need is some way to mount the dish.

    Eurosport International - Analogue German version is free and usually shows more than British Eurosport. Commentary is English.

    To jump on board here if I were to use a Eurosport player on my laptop in the UK and use my mobile as a modem anyone any idea on the download in mb would be?

    I have a fair usage policy with Vodefone for 500mb per month. I'm think I'll hit that pretty quick watching it live.

    Haupappauge's "WinTV" may work.

    Going to investigate myself, as I work on a mobile bar at weekends.

    I'd be very surpsied if the connection would be quick enough to stream it live. iPLayer i think is about 600mb per hour of video.

    I think the satelite dish is the best option...

    Freeview box and watch on ITV4 - that's what I'll be doing (hopefully) at the weekend.
    Carlsberg don't make cycle clothing, but if they did it would probably still not be as good as Assos
