Can you show me the ITV1 logon on their TV guide https://www.itv.com/hub/tv-guide

The ITV Hub app on Android doesn't have ITV1 either. Maybe when ITV have fixed those, they'll ask Sky to update the logos and voice command too.

On the sky go app, the itv 1 logo is now showing when you view tv guide. Unsure if boxes have been updated yet as not near mine at moment.

@rscott I don't agree. I bet they were as bad as one another

[mike1944]

I could not agree more I cannot for the life of me why people are obsessed with logos, they do absolutely nothing to enhance my viewing experience in any way.

@94  try this go to settings then system info then across to viewing card number then re pair viewing card then wait a few mins then check if not worked switch off at wall wait 30 seconds then back on if still not worked   @Kirsty+S27 might be able to help you thanks

@94 what about putting the HD versions as being in your favourites. So you could set bbc 1 HD as 1, bbc 2 hd as 2 etc?

When is the December changes going to appear?

 Also I don't understand why 101 cannot be BBC1HD?

 Hopefully soon the BBC will be disbanded though

The December changes will appear before the changes start to happen, just like every month's change list does.

101 can't be HD in England yet, because the Ofcom rules require the most prominent spots to be the regional variants which don't yet exist. However, the BBC announced the rollout of them would start early next year - https://www.bbc.com/mediacentre/articles/2022/BBC-One-HD-rollout-England

Of course, if you use favourites, you can have whichever channels you like in any order, although if you want the BBC to be disbanded, presumably you wouldn't have any of their channels in your favourites anyway.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Well the ratings couldn't go much lower - at one point, they were beaten by Paw Patrol (Welsh edition) and Davestation (a parody of Babestation featuring a man in a vest, eating a kebab).

October BARB ratings:-

GB News - Monthly Reach 3,205,000 

Sky News - Monthly Reach 10,200,000

BBC News - Monthly Reach 14,238,000 

Talk TV - Monthly Reach 2,010,000

(Monthly Reach  is the total number watching the channel in a month. )

That's down on September's GB News figure of 3,348,000, so doesn't look like they're going up much. They're still over 2 million below Sky Sports News, let alone the actual news channels.

And of course, many watch BBC News on BBC1 - a typical BBC News At Six episode can have 4 million or more viewers for one day. GB News doesn't get that many in a month.

Picked this up from a website

The lead is extended during Dan Wootton’s 9pm show, which regularly reaches around 100,000. GB News had a higher primetime audience than Sky News on two out of five weekdays last week and its average viewership has risen 49 per cent since August 2021, according to Barb.

So they just need to more than treble their current viewership to get near to Sky News..

Or increase  Wootton's viewing figures by a factor of 30-40 to beat a typical BBC News At Six programme. 

Wootton's audience numbers are about the same as Farage managed when he started on the channel, so it's clear they're not gaining overall.

GB news is still fairly new and will overtake the awful bbc and sky news at some stage.
