Is this worth looking at as an alternative to Freeview?

Looks good on paper.

It does look good on paper. Quite tempting in fact.

Whilst Freeview is pretty good and does give that extra little variety, this Sky pack does seem to offer more for not a lot of money. They're obviously hoping that people want to carry on the subscription channels you're given free for 6 months so it's a bit of a loss leader for Sky. But if you can be strict and do cancel them then for £75, it looks pretty good value. Although I'd like to see a full channel list first as most of those 200 will be complete ****e.

And having just looked at the channel line-up, I think I'll stick with Freeview :/

If you don't already have a freeview box though, it's deffo worth a punt.

Most disapointed that Movies for Boys isn't just blowing **** up and nudie women though.
