Film 4 is free to view if they show a modern film it might be in Dolby.

I didn't think all the movie channels were - normally it says on the info screen for each movie if it is DD for dolby digital - I know HD are all 5.1 but not SD as far as I know

Update:- the movie chanells (subscription) are in dd mostly. box office is dolby surround .

A bit of confusion from the sound of it, box office is in dolby digital 5.1 by the nature of modern films, movie channels maybe if they are new enough but could be in the older dolby surround format pro logic.
