On my Sky digibox "Sky One" is on chanel number 106 - but I never saw that number in any programme announcement on Sky. The only say "... on Sky One", and not "... on channel 106".
So where exactly are the channel numbers really used?
BTW: on my VDR the Sky channels start at 201 ;-)
Well I can say that poster / magazine advertising in the UK almost always includes the channel number, especially if it's a channel not produced by Sky themselves.
Sky One is a special case because it's not carried on Freeview or cable. :) (Our national cable-co refused to pay what Sky demanded for Sky One carriage...)
Cheers, Gavin.
