It depends on the size of your dish, in Javea we have a 1.4m and a humax Freesat box and get all the English channels on Astra 2.
Is this internet tv, we use a Roku dongle but only watch Netflix or YouTube on the tablet, or http://www.tvcatchup.com/watch/bbcone.

Maybe Jon @Satandpcguy can help. Bob.

You will be able to pick up all European satellites in Barcelona on an 60-70cm dish.

As for UK TV, channels (most sky pay channels, lots of new channels) on the Euro beam of the Astra 2 satellites will be easy to get in that area on a 70-80cm dish.

But for channels like BBC ITV C4 Five, Quest and the Freesat data stream, as these channels are on the UK beam, then in Barcelona area these will need a 1.8 or 2.4m dish.
