    It's only available on Sky at present. Channel 168 or 110 on Freesat.

    Afraid Alba isnt available on Freeview.

    But if your friend has an internet connection, get him to download a program called "Zattoo"... a very good program that gets you those type of channels.... decent quality as well.

    Or you can get Alba on your computer via the BBC iPlayer which shouldn't need any downloads.

    Start from the Alba website and go from there.

    Good luck!

    Do they not block certain programmes that come on due to "legal reasons"?

    Not sure if they block the football games or not.

    http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/gd/playlive/bbc_alba/

    It says that the programme which is currently on is not being shown due to legal reasons.

    So i'm not sure if they will show the game or not online.

    I think it's the Zattoo thing you need mate. I don't think it's illegal - there was a thread about it the other day that wasn't deleted.

    I poured a glass of water earlier... and there was no taste to it!

    But at least it was free.

    You need to sign up on the website as well so you can use the program.

    But its free and only takes a second to sign up.
