it should be on freeview 5 if you are tuned in correctly I expect.
It should be there:

If it's not, do a FULL retune. (If your Freeview box, or TV, asks you if you want to 'add' channels, or to 'replace' them, accept the latter option).

If you still can't get Channel 5 it means that your Freeview box (or TV) can't 'lock onto' the multiplex (= 'bundle of channels') which includes Channel 5. If you're receiving most other channels without any problems, a simple signal booster should fix the problem. Tesco & Asda will both sell you a cheap one (which will probably work) but Maplin will sell you a better one (which wil almost certainly work):

C5 is on 832 for me but it switches itself to some other channel after 20secs.
Channel 5 on 832???

Not on Freeview, surely???

It should be on 5!!!

yep Chris...that's where it is, momentarily. My electrics keep blowing so tuning & retuning is a pain.
Our doesnt appear where it should either. We get to it quickly from the channel listing then pressing page up to jump to the end of the list.
