My m8 has a sony one - which is nice.
I have a sagem one at work which works just fine.
Do not get a bush or digifusion one - as - in my opinion they are the work of the devil.
Are you considering top up tv? in which case you may well have to get the thomson box with the card slot - although I think there's a box with an integrated decoder now.
As for aeriels - it depends on how close you are to the transmitter as well - I can use an ordinary set top aeriel - but I can see the transmitter out my window.
Have you checked via the post code checker to see what you can get?
