在英国看电视

在英国看电视，首先要交TV License (当然首先要有电视机，TV license按每电视机收)，目前1年145磅。可分月，季度及年度交。虽然我还是没有搞明白，但月交似乎会预交一部分，也就是最初的几个月不是真的145/12。按季度交会一年多5磅，但没有预交。所以我选择了季度的DD。关于更多，http://www.tvlicensing.co.uk/。

然后是看电视基本有3种：Freeview，Cable和Freesat。一般电视机可以自带Freeview和Freesat。Freeview有40多个台可以免费看，挺好的，如果没有对电视节目有什么要求，就默认这个挺好。提供Cabel的很多，比如BT, Sky, Virgin, Talktalk, etc. 我装Virgin宽带的时候顺便选了电视。最便宜的那种，一共65个台，比freeview多了几个美国频道可以看看美剧，但当然没有什么热门的。Glee, Big Bang Theory, ugly Betty, drop dead diva, etc… 还有几个少儿台。激活HD频道要付49磅的费用，先免了吧… Freesat看上去非常诱人，我租的公寓正好是有装锅子的，有电视机自带Freesat或者可以买设备，argos上就几十磅吧。等virgin过期了我肯定要买个试试，反正不能用我就拿去退，哈。2个网站如下。

“When something begins, you generally have no idea how it’s going to end.” – Grey’s Anatomy Episode 23.

I completely had no idea about the finale of this season. Really a crazy ending. I have to say we see the most handsome George of the last scene . Looks we will not see this brave and honest guy in the next season, maybe. Hate this, but let’s check it out in the next season.
