If you own a Freeview-enabled television, it’s a good time to review your settings. Freeview has recently announced several changes, including the introduction of a new channel and updates to the TV guide.
According to Freeview, on May 21, 2025, some broadcasters will be making alterations to their channels. The latest addition to Freeview is High Street TV, a shopping service that has been available on Sky and Virgin Media. This channel offers a 24/7 shopping experience to customers.
High Street TV stated, “We offer a truly multi-channel shopping experience, allowing customers to buy our products conveniently anytime and anywhere.”
High Street TV can be found on channel 95. In addition to the new channel, three existing channels will undergo name changes. That’s Dance (Ch 76) will be renamed That’s Pride, That’s Oldies (Ch 78) will become That’s Summer, and That’s Dance MCR (Ch 79) will now be known as That’s Pride MCR.
To receive these updates on your TV, you may need to perform a retune. Freeview recommends retuning your TV to keep your channels and TV guide up to date.
To retune your devices, follow these steps:
– Press the menu button on your TV remote control or box.
– Select ‘set-up,’ ‘installation,’ ‘update,’ or a similar option. If prompted for a password, use ‘1234’ or ‘0000.’
– Choose ‘first-time installation’ or a similar option.
– Confirm deletion of existing channels if prompted and save any newly found channels.
By retuning your TV, you can ensure that you receive the latest updates and channel lineup.
