If you have a point you want to run broadband from can you keep the analogue connection on the same point also?

Yes. But the wiring and splitters have to be recent as bad wiring and dodgy splitters can lead to interference from the cable modem on the TV. The self-install box comes with an F-connector (satellite tv style) splitter so you may have to get an F connector to Push connector (Belling Lee) patch cable for the TV connection.

It'll carry both, but digital will be scrambled.
I can get rte1 on digital though.
rte2 is mysteriously scrambled.
