Freeview has announced significant changes to its TV guide, including channel repositioning and a rebranding. The most notable update is the closure of Talk (Ch 280), a British news channel known for debate and opinion-led journalism. To access this service, users will now need to use the official Talk app or other platforms like Samsung TVs, Roku devices, and LG screens.
In addition to the channel closure, Freeview has made adjustments to its lineup. Wedotv Big Stories on channel 275 will now be known as Wedotv, and three services will occupy new spots on the planner. Ketchup TV, Ketchup Too, and Cartoon Classics will all be relocated, with Ketchup TV moving from Ch 209 to Ch 208, Ketchup Too shifting from Ch 210 to Ch 209, and Cartoon Classics moving from Ch 214 to Ch 210.
Freeview emphasized that channels on their platform are always evolving, with broadcasters making decisions to relocate, add, or remove channels. Viewers are advised to check their TV settings and retune to ensure they have access to the latest channel lineup. To retune your TV, simply follow these steps:
– Press the menu button on your TV remote control
– Select ‘set-up,’ ‘installation,’ or ‘update’
– Choose ‘first-time installation’ or ‘factory reset’
– Confirm the deletion of existing channels if prompted, and save any newly found channels
