Should I be receiving BBC North East in Yorkshire? I'm getting North West.

Indeed so - this is caused by a strike in the BBC regions.

We got East Midlands news today in Birmingham because our presenters are on strike. I expect it is a similar situation for you.

What's happened to Look East regional news on Ch 858 - I seem to have 3 channels for London news instead???

Ahh, thanks. We are distracted by work at home and lost sight of outside news!

Thank you for clarifying.

Hi @ayjay506 👋.

Thanks for reaching out to us. We endeavour to bring you a wide variety of channels however these can change from time to time, as we can only air the channels we have a license and agreement to. Apologies for any disappointment.
