I get annoyed with people who say that! It says the channel name before every programme and on digital EPG's and somehow people can't take it in!

Perhaps eventually they'll find it easier to call it BBC One than 'Channel 101'

Saying that, my brother will only recognise BBC1 as 101 and Channel 4 as 104 etc and gets confused when told something is on BBC1, no matter how often you explain it to him!

And everything that isn't on channel 1 to 5 is on Sky!
'Did you see Little Britain last night?'
'what channel was it on?'

I've noticed that! Many people have their Sky digibox tuned to channel 6 on their analogue TV so when they watch through that they always refer to it as "Sky", rather than the name of the channel the digibox itself is tuned to. These people usually watch anything on the terrestrial channels through analogue instead of changing the channel on the digibox (my nan always does this, but TBH I don't even know why she has Sky because she rarely seems to watch it, usually has the TV on analogue BBC1 or ITV1).
I usually refer to the third channel as "three" (not channel 3) or Anglia.
