On 22 March 2023 some broadcasters are making important changes to their channels. You will need to retune to update your TV and keep your channels and TV Guide up to date.
GREAT! Movies action will be renamed GREAT! action, in line with other GREAT! channels. GREAT! action is available on Freeview channel 42, though not in Wales.
Al Jazeera will launch a new streaming channel service, allowing viewers to access high quality streams of both its English and Arabic channels via the internet. News channel WION will also launch a streaming service on channel 287.
BBC Regional Channel Changes
BBC changes are in line with the BBC’s plan to roll out new HD versions of BBC One on Freeview for all English regions. When the new regional version of BBC One HD launches in each region, the current version of BBC One HD will be closed.
This means you will no longer have to tune away from BBC One HD at channel 101 to your regional version of BBC One on Freeview to watch your regional local news and programming.
