Freeview users might want to check their TVs this week, or they'll miss out on a new channel launch. It's just been confirmed that High Street TV is launching on the free-to-view platform, with homes able to tune in from today via channel 95. This 24-hour shopping service has, until now, only been available via premium suppliers such as Sky and Virgin Media.

Luckily for shopaholics, that's now changed.

"High Street TV is truly multi-channel – we provide the opportunity for customers to purchase our products whenever and wherever most convenient to them," the service explained.

Along with the new content launching on Freeview, it's also been confirmed that a trio of channels are also changing their names.

This includes That’s Dance (Ch 76) which is now called That’s Pride. There's That’s Oldies (Ch 78) which switches to That’s Summer and That’s Dance MCR (Ch 79) that is now called That’s Pride MCR.

"On 21 May 2025 some broadcasters are making changes to their channels," Freeview explained.

The update is available now, but users must make sure they retune their devices to take advantage. To get the new channels, you may need to dig into the settings.

"You will need to retune to update your TV and keep your channels and TV Guide up to date," Freeview added.

"Channels are constantly evolving on Freeview with individual channels making the decision to move, add or remove channels. Freeview continues to ensure that audiences can enjoy a rich and varied content."

Here's how to retune your devices.

• Press menu on your box or TV remote control

• Select ‘set-up’, ‘installation’, ‘update’ or a similar option. If you’re asked for a password, the default code is ‘1234’ or ‘0000’.

• Select ‘first-time installation’ (sometimes called ‘factory reset’, ‘full retune’ or ‘default settings’).

•Press ‘OK’ if your equipment asks if it's OK to delete existing channels and then your retune should start automatically. If you’re prompted to, save the channels that are found.
