It means you can finally switch to alternative versions of BBC One and BBC Two.
And they’ll all be available in HD too.
The different regions and nations of both channels are now available in the 900s of your electronic programme guide.
Programming is largely the same as your main BBC One and BBC Two channels, but it’s ideal if you want to watch alternative regional programmes.
So if you live far away from your home town, maybe you want to catch the local 6.30pm news on BBC One once in a while?
It’s great if you live in a border region and want to switch the news up too.
Or maybe you want to watch a different region’s political show?
You also get slightly different shows on BBC Two, with access to an England, Wales and Northern Ireland version no matter where you live in the UK.
