This is a list of the free-to-air channels that are currently available via satellite from SES Astra satellites (Astra 2E/2F/2G) at orbital position 28.2°E, serving Ireland and the United Kingdom. Sky and Freesat use these satellites to deliver their channels. If one was to change providers between Sky and Freesat, one would not require a realignment of the satellite dish.

Key

Channels with SD and HD versions

Channel numbers sometimes differ between HD boxes and standard boxes. On HD boxes, HD channels are generally given precedence over the SD counterpart (though this does not apply in all regions of the UK in some cases). For this article, it is assumed that the subscriber has a Sky+ HD or Sky Q box but does not subscribe to the HD pack.

Channel sections

Note: Channel numbers listed for Sky are for the United Kingdom only. In Ireland, some channels may not be on the channel number listed, or may not be present on the EPG and require manual tuning. Officially, Freesat is not available in Ireland.
