Beth: Vintage TV (242) can only be viewed on HD compatible TV's or boxes which are connected into the internet, the channel in question being transmitted on the same multiplex as used by ITV3, if though you cannot receive ITV3 either? then for some reason or another you are not receiving COM4, best policy being to reset your TV followed by carrying out another rescan, or disconnect the TV from the mains for a minute or so followed by carrying out a "first time installation".

However it should also be noted, that even if you are connected into the internet and see 242 in the guide list, if on selecting same a "device not compatible" message comes on then this can be an indication that the TV or box you are using does not meet the technical spec required in order to view the channel, Vintage TV being aware of this problem and as such has listed a number of TV's and boxes known as being unable to view the channel.

My Brother hasn't got internet, or sky, but loves your channel when he watches my TV. How can he get it?

GRAHAM: First of all Graham, this is not the website of Vintage TV (or any other TV channel).

If your brother does not have satellite TV (Sky or Freesat) and does not have an internet connection then I am afraid that there is no way for him to watch Vintage TV.

That was a decision by Virgin to move Vintage into one of their paid packages, you'll need to nag them.
