How can I get Freeview HD?

To watch Freeview HD, first check that you are in a Freeview HD coverage area. Then all
you’ll need to do is buy a Freeview HD digital box or Freeview+ HD digital TV recorder* and connect it to an HD ready TV set, using an HDMI cable.

Or, if you don’t already have an HD ready TV set, this is your chance to get a new TV with Freeview HD built in. It’s the perfect excuse to upgrade. Click here to see our simple set up guide for Freeview HD.

Remember that an HD ready logo on your TV doesn’t mean that you are already watching HD channels on Freeview. So, when you’re buying a box or TV, look out for the Freeview HD logo to ensure that you’re buying an approved Freeview product, so you’ll be able to access all the Freeview HD channels as well as the standard 50* Freeview channels.

* Freeview+ HD available from May 2010.
* number of channels available are subject to digital TV coverage at your address
