Hi, I'm moving to FH this week. I know there are cable lines on my street, but how do I find out which company I contact to get cable? I want a Sky package, but can't have a dish b/c it's a conservation area. I also want broadband. Any help would be greatly appreciated

I think you'll find it is all Virgin around here (fnar!), but we use HomeChoice - like cable but using "on demand" video over the telephone line, including broadband internet. You only need to have a BT line.
Not sure if you can get the sky packages

Yes, Virgin is the only cable company now. The problem with Virgin, though, is that you can't get SkyOne on it, although you can get the Sky sports and movie channels. Homechoice is now called Tiscali TV and gets good reviews for tv through the phoneline. There's also BTVision as a similar option - you can get Sky through both Tiscali and BTVision. You can get broadband with all these options. Good luck
