Freeview viewers face set retune

 

Freeview users will need to retune their set-top boxes and TVs on 30 September as the service is upgraded.

 

More than 18 million homes will be affected. The move mainly aims to give more viewers access to Channel Five.

 

However, those who have Channel Five at the moment will be unable to watch it until they have retuned.

 

ITV3, ITV4 and some BBC radio stations will also be affected. About 460,000 households are expected to permanently lose access to ITV3 and ITV4.

 

The technical changes behind the upgrade will eventually enable High Definition (HD) television to be broadcast on Freeview. HD is already available on the free-to-view satellite service Freesat.
