Hopefully get Disney+ app on by TiVo when fox closes down and will likely be followed by nat geo channels

Streaming apps like Netflix are awful on my TiVo. My Netflix and Disney+ are better my Roku and Fire Stick.

aye especially with the allegations of Laura Kussenberg basically being a government mouth piece which unsurprisingly was revealed today by dominic cummings. Be also good if GB News just gave a platform to actually elected people rather than just bringing nigel farage on constantly like the BBC as he isnt an elected member of any part of our country be it national or local level.

Lets hope it gives the BBC News a kick up the arse to become unbias rather than parroting what the govt want people to hear and give voices to actual important people!

Thank heavens eh!

GB News has arrived on channel 626 with the same graphics and audio loop already added to other platforms.

So only a matter of time until we find out if it is really unbiased.

Why do you say that? It has the HD flag on the EPG.

Sorry my mistake, i first looked on my fav channel setting to set it there and there was no hd logo beside it.Just check this minute still no hd logo on my fav channel,hence why i posted the above.

Why is it so far down the guide when there are so many free channel numbers closer to 601 available?

This will be down to both regulatory & contractual reasons.
