Look up BRT tv schedule, they used to do news in Greek then in English around 7 to 8pm.

For info you can watch BRT1 and BRT2 online streaming.

http://www.brtk.net/index.php?Itemid=2



The streaming options are on the right hand side of this page. They do require having Real Player installed to watch just by clicking on them. I am not a fan of real player and do not like it on my machine. You can however still get the streams to work using a player like VLC, which I personaly much prefer to real player. To do this do not left click on the 'BRT1 Live' button , but right click it and copy the URL into buffer. Open VLC and from media menu option select open entwork stream, and where the box is to enter a network URL , paste in the link you copied before and select play. Just tested this for BRT1 and it worked fine for me.

E & M

The question was to watch on terrestrial TV! That is a 3 foot wide dish with a spike out of the middle of it! It used to be either BRT 1 or 2 early evening which did three language news broadcasts, T,G & E!
