probably not. Freesat is HD freeview bascially.

Sorry if I'm stating the obvious but you do need a satellite dish for Freesat, hence the -sat bit.

panasonic as already mentioned.when you get your sky hd fitted,ask the bloke to run another cable in for your tv from the dish.he will probably do it for fuck all or a minimal charge.

Doesn't really matter about the bracket, just make sure you use some fucking huge anchor bolts or your nice new expensive TV will come crashing down onto the floor.
