Switch from SD to HD on satellite

The BBC is replacing its standard definition (SD) broadcasts on satellite with high definition (HD) versions.

When this is happening?

  • The BBC has now closed all its regional BBC One SD channels, and replaced them with a UK-wide version of BBC One in SD. At the same time, the BBC has launched the HD version of your local BBC One channel which you can find on channel 101.
  • Starting in 2024, the BBC will end all SD broadcasts on satellite.

Hi Ceasarome

 

Thanks for your reply, but I have got a Sky Q box. 
The problem seems to have corrected itself as the following day I was able to view local news. 

Thanks anyway 😊
