Brian: I seem to have lost Talking Pictures on Freesat. A year or so ago it was sort of OK. It then became patchy, i.e sometimes it worked other times not. Now gone altogether. Exactly the same with both the in set Freesat tuner (Samsung QLED TV) and with a separate Humax box. Both tuners work fine on other channels. Freesat have said they have not reduced the signal strength but could (or would) not tell me what it should be.

Col: Hi There
Unfortunately I'm relaying this second hand - my mother lives in Northern Ireland and this channel would be ideal - BT48 4DG.
She re-tuned her telly stations today 23/05/20 but no Channel 81 appeared. Freeview is part of the telly, she doesn't have a separate box. What with lockdown she can't get folk in. Is the station available in this area - or is her telly the likely problem?
Cheers
Andy

Hi, your mother should be able to receive all the standard 6 multiplexes if her aerial is pointing at the Limavady transmitter. Talking Pictures is on the ArqB multiplex see Channel listings | Freeview
The aerial should be pointing at bearing 71 degrees that's ~ENE with the rods horizontal. Reception should be good/excellent.
If the aerial is pointing at the Londonderry relay due W (bearing 270 degrees) with rods vertical, it only transmits the 3 PSB mutliplexes BBCA, D3&4, BBCB HD.

Hi, my dad 86 tells me he's been watching Talking pictures on his lounge tv up until Monday 1st June, he said it has just gone off, I re-tuned his tv but there doesn't seem to be a ch81. He lives in Chester, any ideas what I should do to get him back on it?
We get it on the small tv in the kitchen though.
I live in Wrexham and I can get it, is it because we are on the welsh region?

Talking Pictures LCN81 is on the ArqB multiplex (see Channel listings | Freeview ). This multiplex is broadcast from all main transmitters Welsh or English.
It's likely your Dad is getting his signal from Winter Hill whereas from what you are saying you are getting yours from Moel-y-Parc (but full postcodes would be needed to see what the Freeview Detailed Coverage Checker was predicting for those locations).
Both those transmitters are listed for Planned Engineering this week, Winter Hill with "Possible service interruptions" and Moel y Parc with "Possible weak signal".
If you retuned when there was no signal (off or very weak) it will clear correct tuning and you'll need to retune again when the signal is back to normal. You may have to try several times.

I doubt it, see their website Talking Pictures TV - An Archive Film & TV Channel
You could always contact them and ask if there's some devious way!

Hello we have cable with virgin but can't find Talking Pictures in the listing guide. Do we need to ask Virgin to turn it on? Or can we access if we get an additional free view box fitted somehow?
