Where to find the new ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ Scotland TV channel
- Published
The ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ has announced full details of how audiences can find the new ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ Scotland television channel when it launches on 24 February.
Its position on the electronic programme guide (EPG) will vary across the different broadcast platforms.
The new channel will be available in High Definition (HD) via Freeview/YouView, Sky, Freesat and Virgin Media.
It will also be available in standard definition on Freeview position 9.
That position is currently occupied by ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ Four.
For Freeview customers in Scotland only, ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ Four SD will move to 82.
³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ Four HD remains unaffected across all platforms including Freeview.
From midnight on Sunday 17 February, ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ Two Scotland will cease to broadcast to viewers in Scotland.
After this date, viewers in Scotland will receive the network version of ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ Two and content that would traditionally have been broadcast on ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ Two Scotland will become part of the content mix on the ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ Scotland channel.
Re-tuning will be required on Freeview devices only, with all other TV platforms updating automatically before launch.
Sky and Freesat viewers without an HD-capable receiver will instead receive ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ Scotland in SD on 115/106 respectively.
The new ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ Scotland TV channel is to launch on 24 February and will feature the first episode of the final series of comedy Still Game.
