According to LG should have inbuilt freesat tuner so cable from dish should go straight into tv

I don't have an LG but do have a Sony with "Freesat" and it's terrible to navigate, it's not Freesat(R) it's free sat(ellite), so the TV guide is very basic (now and next) and all over the place, no features like catch up players etc, so I'd check it does everything you need otherwise you may end up buying a satellite set top box anyway.
