At the moment, in most areas, there are approximately 23 TV channels and 15 radio stations available, and of course the picture and sound are of top digital quality. A good decoder will give you the opportunity to select your preferred language for programmes or films which are transmitted in original version.

You can also choose your preferred language for subtitles – a great way to learn Spanish. This article appears in the print edition 610 of Island Connections
