If you use the cable with Starhub, you can watch TV5, but the programme is not that great, thought some movies are not bad.

You have news from all over the French Speaking countries: Switzerland, Belgium, many african countries, some islands, Quebec, and the movies are often sub-titled in english: it is easier to understand for the people who are learning french.

I am sure you already know it, but the Alliance Française, on Sarkies road close to Newton circus, show every tuesday good french movies. there are on: www.alliancefrancaise.org.sg

Are you french or just learning the language?
