Just had an email from the people behind the vintage tv / movie channel Talking Pictures.
Some great news; we are delighted to announce that Talking Pictures TV is coming to Freeview! We hope to launch on Freeview around September 15th, again we haven’t been told our channel number yet but I think it will be in the 70’s. We will be launching as an SD channel on Freeview but through the HD service.

If you can see Motors TV in the Entertainment Genre or BBC4 HD in the HD genre then you will be able to view Talking Pictures (if you have an HD receiver).
For those of you without Sky this is great news, a world of nostalgia and vintage cinema awaits you with Talking Pictures TV which broadcasts 24 hour hours a day 7 days a week.
