Freeview TV gets much-needed boost that’s already available on Sky

Freeview TV users in the UK can look forward to an exciting new addition to their viewing options. The Rewind TV platform, which has already been available on Sky, is set to launch on Freeview televisions on September 18. This service brings classic content to more homes, offering viewers a nostalgic trip down memory lane with popular shows like The Prisoner, Drop the Dead Donkey, Worzel Gummidge, Whose Line Is It Anyway, and more.

Launched on channel 95, Rewind TV aims to be the go-to destination for curated classic TV shows, providing Freeview users with a diverse range of entertainment options. The platform promises to cater to a variety of tastes, from comedy and children’s programming to factual series, ensuring there is something for everyone to enjoy. This move is welcomed by those who prefer not to subscribe to monthly paid TV services, offering an alternative for those looking to explore classic television content.

In addition to the launch of Rewind TV, Freeview users can also look forward to another exciting update in September. The arrival of GREAT! Christmas on television screens will bring festive cheer to households, offering a variety of Christmas-themed shows and movies until early January. Viewers can enjoy a selection of Christmas classics and hidden festive treats to get into the holiday spirit, replacing the current GREAT! Romance channel on the television planner.

It is not required to retune devices for these new channel updates; however, if the channels do not appear, a simple reset may be necessary. With these new additions, Freeview TV continues to enhance the viewing experience for audiences, providing a mix of classic and festive content to entertain viewers across the UK. Keep an eye out for these updates on your Freeview television and enjoy a trip down memory lane or indulge in some festive cheer this season.
