What BFBS Television channels will I get?
You'll get these channels (click to enlarge)
What sort of programmes are on the channels?
BFBS1 has a bit of everything, from chat shows to soaps, dramas to news, documentaries to sport. We carry the BBC News channel overnight.
BFBS2 is a 6-hour block of programmes which repeat around the clock. Home to shows like CSI and the Simpsons, sci-fi and comedy.
BFBS3 KIDS does exactly what it says on the tin, so if you're old enough to be in HM Armed Forces, you possibly won't find much here for you....
BFBS4 is our movie channel. Two movies a day, which repeat around the clock.
Then there are our carriage channels - direct live relays of two Sky Sports channels, a music channel and Sky News.
And finally our '1 day later' channel'. We repeat peaktime BFBS1 the next day only earlier, to help combat the time difference.
Coming soon
In the next 2 or 3 months, we'll be adding factual entertainment and documentaries on BFBS3 in the evenings, and we'll repeat that again the next day, only earlier, as '3 catch-up'.
How do I get BFBS TV?
We deliver BFBS TV in Cyprus by DTH - satellite dish to an outlet point. You will be issued with a set-top box by the estate manager or QM and you must return it when you leave. Viewing cards are issued from our DTH offices.
