Hi

Has anyone got problems with Freeview at the moment. Sky3, sky news and Sky sport news the screen goes blank after 15 seconds, doesn't seem to be effected when the ads are on, sky txt does not work either.

Had heard that sky were pulling out of freeview, have they done it now then?

Anyone else having the same problems, can not believe this a week before the footie season, and I wont have soccer saturday on sky sports news.

    Leave Sky Sports news on for a minute, let us know if it switches off. Might have been a technical qlich but I'm not so sure.
