Unless they've started re-issuing them in the last few days, there are no
longer free cards available. These were provided via Sky by the BBC whose
broadcasts are no longer encrypted therefore they no longer need to provide
cards. This means that the other 'terrestrial' channels ITV 1 & 2, Ch4
and
Ch5 (which remain encrypted) are now only available on a Sky card, which in
turn is only available if you subscribe at some level.

Yes, contact Sky and you can get a card to allow you to view the FTA/FTV
stuff.
