Are there plans to extend the range of regional variations on Freeview?

^{Brian Butterworth published on UK Free TV 1st October 2014 at 07:21}

No. Because all the satellite channels can be received within the UK, it is possible for the BBC (and ITV too) to make all these available to everyone.

However, on Freeview there is only a limited capacity from each earth-based transmitter. Therefore this limited capacity is used to provide additional channels, including the "correct" ITV and BBC region.

Therefore it will not be feasible for this limited capacity to broadcast other regions.

John Shield: Check the details for Jersey - but its unlikely that commercial will want to spend the extra cash on what might be a relatively small audience.

Try instead.
