Nice to see the Freesat UHD hidden channel on 998, I wonder will we ever see BBC or ITV UHD on Freesat?

They are only UHD Demo channels .BBC UHD is only on BBC iPlayer and without VPN is blocked in Ireland

There are three demo UHD channels on Astra 28.2. Just you won’t find them on the FREESAT or Sky EPG.

It's shame that the three Demo are not used by Freesat .They used them years back .

There is 1 UHD demo channel on Freesat - It's hidden on 998 (manually pressing the 3 digits)
It's only available on Freesat 4K TVs, not the new 4K boxes
