TV guide & providers

Set your location and provider, customise channels and help us investigate a schedule problem.

How do I get TV listings for my area? Choose your UK location and television provider.

Open Providers and choose the location and television service that match how you watch. My Telly will use those choices to shape your local channel lineup and schedule. You can also browse our UK locations before setting up a personalised guide.

Which UK TV providers does My Telly support? Find schedules for Freeview, Freesat, Sky, Virgin Media and more.

My Telly carries listings for popular UK services including Freeview, Freesat, Sky and Virgin Media, together with additional regional and platform options. Visit the TV providers page to see the choices available for your location.

How do I change my location or TV provider? Refresh your guide after moving home or changing service.

Sign in, go to Providers and select your new location or television service. Save the change and your guide will update to the relevant lineup.

How do I edit, remove or reorder channels? Keep the channels you watch at the top of your guide.

Sign in and open Channels. From there you can hide channels you do not watch, restore available channels and reorder your lineup to make the guide faster to scan.

What should I do if a TV listing is wrong or missing? Send the details we need to investigate the schedule.

Please contact us with your location, television provider, channel name, date, time and the programme that appears to be wrong or missing. Listings can differ by region and provider, so those details help us identify the correct schedule quickly.

Can I print a TV schedule? Use the print tools already built into your browser.

Yes. Open the guide page you want, then choose Print from your browser menu or use Ctrl/Cmd + P. The printed result is generated by your browser and may vary depending on the device and page you are viewing.

Favourites & reminders

Save programmes, control alerts and choose the streaming services that matter to you.

How do I add or remove a favourite programme? Build a personal watchlist from programme pages.

Open the programme’s My Telly listings page and use the favourite control to add it to your account. To review or remove saved programmes later, sign in and open Reminders.

How do I change or stop email reminders? Control alerts separately for each saved programme.

Sign in and open Reminders. Find the relevant programme and change its alert setting, or remove the programme from your saved list if you no longer want to follow it.

How do I choose the streaming services shown in My Telly? Personalise streaming discovery around your subscriptions.

Sign in and open Streamers. Select the services you use and save your choices. You can still explore the full UK streaming guide whenever you want to browse more widely.

Watching, apps & programmes

Learn what My Telly provides, where to watch and who to contact about programme content.

Can I watch TV programmes directly on My Telly? My Telly helps you find programmes rather than broadcasting them.

My Telly is a television listings and streaming discovery guide; it does not broadcast channels or host programmes. Use our schedules to see where something is airing, or follow an available viewing link in the streaming guide to open the relevant broadcaster or streaming service.

Is there a My Telly app for iPhone, iPad and Android? Take your TV and streaming guide with you.

Yes. Visit the My Telly Apps page for the current iPhone, iPad and Android download links. Sign in with the same My Telly account to keep supported personal settings connected between the website and app.

Where should I send feedback about a programme or channel? Comments about editorial content belong with the broadcaster.

My Telly publishes listings and discovery information but does not make programmes or decide what channels broadcast. For comments, complaints or questions about a programme, presenter, storyline or channel decision, please contact the relevant broadcaster or production company directly.
