Two then three

[George 1978]

Four (or five if you count a computer channel in the mid 1980s, or a VCR channel four 1989 onwards). I used to buy different portable aerials and signal boosters to get extra ITV regions without much success.

Then in 2000 I got cable for the first time and I received over 100 of them.
