Regional Variations
The correct BBC One region and BBC Two nation will appear at 101 and 102 respectively corresponding to the postcode entered in the Freesat box or TV with the remainder still accessible under Regional Variations. All BBC One regions appear in the 951-966 series even where that means repeating the channel that is on 101. The regional channels for the ITV Network and Channel 4 work similarly but the variants are kept hidden.
