BBC Regional HD Freeview Changes

 – Latest channel launches and updates on Freeview

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.  

The main change is that BBC One regional will now have the HD version on Chanel 101. 

 

The above 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.

The new channels to launch are

Channel Name Channel Number 
Al Jazeera English 285
