The headline says it all. If you are not one of the Sky+ horde and tend to like freebies like Freeview digital TV then this is certainly going to appeal.
The sexily-monikered Sharp TU-R160H is a slimline silver and black deck with funky blue lights that houses a 160GB hard drive and dual-Freeview digital /TV tuners. Unless it’s heart attacks, two is usually better than one and in this case it means that familial squabbling over what to watch this Christmas can be avoided since you can watch one channel and record another.
There’s a handy 8-day electronic programme guide (EPG) while the unit can store up to 80 hours of telly. Other features include the usual time-shifting and picture-in-picture. Out now, you can find it here for £196.-Martin Lynch

Do you know of any twin Freeview tuner players that also incorporate a 160 - 250 hard drive and a DVD recorder and player, please?

I want a dvr that I can connect directly to my Sky set top box.I do not need a dvd or freeview as this is for my place in spain and I only have basic sky on a non subscription basis.
Cheers Roger
