Is there a TV listings site which includes programmes and programme details for most of the stations?

The individual stations' sites list their own schedules, and sometimes listings for a few other stations, but these don't seem to include programme details.

The online Radio Times seems to list very few stations.

Is there a site which gives a comprehensive guide to both stations and programme details?

That's the one I use - customisable to your individual needs channel wise.

Thanks both.

tvguide.co.uk appears to fit the bill pretty much exactly.

I've used it to check what's on all the Freeview stations - have you checked the options? Although if you've found something easier then fair enough.

IIRC there's an option to select the signal you receive, and if you set it to freeview, all the freeview channels are automatically added to your list.

I couldn't persuade it to do that, although I didn't try very hard.

The sites suggested by Zero and VxFan both appear comprehensive, although the latter only lists 10 stations at a time.

My favourite so far is the one suggested by Zero.

You can scroll down all the stations, the genre buttons are handy, and it's easy to go to different times of the day.

One benefit of the Sky site is the channel list is in precisely the same order as it is on my Sky box.

On the Radio Times website:

www.radiotimes.com

add the additional stations listings you require.

You may find

www.locatetv.com/

useful as an adjunct.

Use it to tell you when a show or film (or particular actor/director or anything really) is next on - it will email you in good time.

I find Diguide very good. Lists all the channels you want, will sound an alarm on your computer when a programme is coming on and incudes radio channels, unless we have to call them wireless channels!
