It's been a few days now since I posted the news that on Tuesday 27th October we'll be closing two of the interactive streams on the ´óÏó´«Ã½ Red Button on Freeview to make way for free-to-air HD coming to the platform. Lots of you have commented with a wide range of opinions and I wanted to get back to you on a few of the main topics.
Firstly I can absolutely understand why some of you disagree with these changes. It affects the content you love to watch, and I want to reassure you that we are doing everything we can in conjunction with our colleagues in Sport to schedule events to ensure that we try and accommodate all the major sporting events on Freeview; that we continue to online and this is made available to TV listings magazines to help you know when which sport is on and to remind you that ´óÏó´«Ã½ Sport video available via the Red Button is also available on .
During major events we will also look to free up bandwidth available to the ´óÏó´«Ã½ across Freeview as we did during the Summer Olympics in 2008.
