In middle London they will get a strong signal from Crystal Palace transmitter with the proverbial piece of wet string.
As for DRM, all the non subscription channels you'd ever want to watch (and also those you wouldn't) are restriction free. I have seen no discussion which might change this but the BBC funding mechanism is always a matter of debate and a change from annual TV license by all to a subscription mechanism might be on the cards st some time in the future.
I think that things like the BT subscription services are Internet delivered, Sky is satellite.

Subject: [mythtv-users] State of OTA in the UK
Was watching the gang at Antennas Direct using one of their antennas to scan for channels in Piccadilly Circus.
https://youtu.be/9euIS4d8ckU Just curious what the state of OTA is in the UK. Any whiff of broadcasters changing to a standard that allows DRM or is that not allowed by law?
