Talking Pictures TV

I am dismayed to find that TPTV isn't available on EE/BT TV, although it is on Virgin, SkyFreeview and Freesat. Are there any plans to make this popular channel available?

I'm not sure about talking pictures as I am not sure if they are on other competitors IP services, but the Great! Channels definitely are, so would be good to see them at some point.

Since BT started IP channels there hasn't been much added to the list unlike competitors where there are regularly additions. 

You will probably need to switch your TV to Freeview as and when required for Apple TV and mini boxes, or if its the BT TV Pro, you would need to reset it to factory settings with an arieal plugged in to change it to arieal mode.

I agree!  It would be great to see Talking Pictures on EE.  It's annoying to have to keep switching platform.

Hi

I have a solution, as I have discovered that TPTV is not available, when EE told me it was !

If you go on the TPTV website and sign up, you can view most of TPTVs content there.  If you want to see it on your TV screen just plug your laptop into the TV and view it there.  Be aware though that some of the content on TPTVs website is sometimes only available for 1 week.  So, for instance, if you want to see the latest viewing of The Saint, then make sure you watch it within a week of its airing on TV.

Good luck. Bee

Talking pictures are working to make an IP version of their channel and that's TV are doing the same for Sky stream.

However it remains to be seen if they were then added to EE, as the high pay wall was always an issue for the U channels for example, and it seems to be more feasible for those in theory as they are now on Freely.
