my frequency button dont have arrow facility but the other boxes do, so my guess is were not suposed to fiddle with the frequencys, should just get channel 4 to put back the interactive facility that we have all got used to over the years, they removed the online coverage and now they have not given us the 24/7 live coverage feed that is suposed to come free every year! come on channel 4 dont let us down now...

Just type the frequency numbers in.

This is recommended on the Channel 4 website - it won't mess up other channels.

Just put the number 12.480 into the frequency using the number buttons. Nothing will be messed up.

Seeing as tho Virgin sponsors BB, there must be something for Virgin viewers - sorry can't help though.

I was on such a downer before I found this secret channel - just watching the catch up shows is not enough.

It's annoying, give Virgin Media a live stream. I'm really annoyed there is none.

Use the number keys to adjust the frequency.
The Sky box automatically resets the frequency to the original number when you complete adding the new channel. :wink:
