FAO Brian Tist. Noticed a couple of errors on the site.

First of all, on the page for the channel Planet Pop the Wikipedia page you have linked to is for an album called "Planet Pop" by a German band called ATC.

The list of all of the free channels in the UK still lists City TV amongst the local TV channels but they have gone bust before they broadcast a single program. OFCOM have re-allocated the licence for Birmingham's local TV channel to another company now - Kaleidoscope TV.

If you get the chance could you alter these?

Ben Lacey: Film 4+1 is no longer being broadcast on Standard Definition Freeview Ben. Channel 4 have made changes to how it is broadcast so that Freeview HD customers can now receive Film 4+1 (even though the channel is actually still being broadcast in SD).

I did post a message on the Film 4+1 page of this website when the switch occurred.

My post reads:
Film4+1 has jumped from Channel 45 to Channel 790 on Freeview.

An on screen message states that Film4+1 will be available to Freeview HD viewers from 20th November 2014 when a retune will be necessary. However, it will still be broadcast in Standard Definition. It will be located on Channel 45 on the EPG.

Freeview SD viewers will lose the channel after that date.

nick finch: Sorry but this website has no connection to Made in Bristol TV or any other TV channel Nick. It is to help advise people who are having technical problems with television reception.

You should try and contact the television channel themselves. However, despite the fact that the Made in Bristol TV channel has been up and running since September their website still seems to be under construction. The link to the Made in Bristol TV website is at the top of this page.

Made in Bristol TV is part of the Made Television group (the UK's largest local TV provider), you could try contacting them (they are based in London) and ask them for a contact e-mail for Made in Bristol TV. Made Television's e-mail address is:-

MADE TELEVISION

Finally, congratulations on your club's magnificent achievement. I am very heavily involved in my local non-league football club (Leek Town FC) and know how much hard work goes in behind the scenes at every club.

Kat: There does appear to be a problem with subtitles on Pick at the moment for some reason. There are a number of programmes on the channel that were subtitled but the subtitles seem not to be appearing for some episodes and are appearing on others.

However, this website has no connection to Pick TV. Pick is owned by Sky. You can use the link at the top of this page to go to the Sky.com website. Use the "Contact Us" section on that website to make a complaint.

Joan Carman: I have checked the True Entertainment schedules up to 1st February and 'A Woman Called Jackie' is not listed at all.

It is possible that there is a compliance issue specific to episode 3 that would prevent it being broadcast.

But frankly, as this is the third complaint in January about a third different mini-series that has had two episodes broadcast and not the third that seems unlikely. I'm afraid the most likely explanation is that True Entertainment really do seem to only be interested in broadcasting something between the commercial breaks - and aren't too concerned about what that something is, whether episodes are broadcast in order etc.

Liz Gibbs: It seems doubtful Liz. They do just seem to see all these shows as content to broadcast between the adverts with little regard for what order they are showing a series in, what aspect ratio it is broadcast in or indeed whether they show all the episodes of a series.
