Yes I know a normal analogue aerial on a freeview box will work when the
switchover applies but the sister doesn't want a FV box hooked up to
the TV.


Really not enough information. In some areas - like most of London - an
existing aerial covers the FreeView frequencies. So in general will work
just fine - if it worked ok for analogue. In other parts of the country
you may need a wideband one to cover all the analogue and FreeView
frequencies.

If you're in a reasonable signal strength area a log periodic takes some
beating - smooth response and good directional properties. Like this one:-
