Freeview Channel Changes

Freeview Channel Changes January 2022

On 26th January 2022 the BBC Three channel will launch on the UK Freeview platform. The new channel slots on Freeview will be channel 23 in Standard Definition and channel 109 in High Definition. It is expected that the additions will be made at midday on 26/02/2022

As a result of BBC 3 being included in the Freeview Channel list all existing channels between 23 and 82 will be moving up a channel except Dave Ja Vu which will be moving up two channels from 23 to 25

There will be no changes to the broadcast hours, coverage, or content for these channels.

If you are no longer able to receive your TV channels or they are not working you may need to retune your Televisions and Freeview Receivers to update the channels.

Below is a list of the current channels and the new channel number they will be moved to.
