How to retune your TV
You will need to retune your TV to gain access to all these new channel updates.
If you are unsure of how to retune your TV, don't worry, it is quite simple, and usually only requires pressing 'retune' when prompted by your TV, according to Freeview.
RECOMMENDED READING:
Retuning may vary on different devices, but in most cases, Freeview said, it can be done by following these steps:
Press menu on your box or TV remote control Select 'set-up', 'installation', 'update' or a similar option. If you're asked for a password, the default code is '1234' or '0000'. Select 'first-time installation' (sometimes called 'factory reset', 'full retune' or 'default settings'). Press 'OK' if your equipment asks if it's OK to delete existing channels and then your retune should start automatically. If you're prompted to, save the channels that are found.
Freeview added: "If you've already done an automatic retune and this didn't work, you may need to do a manual retune."
If you are still unsure, you can watch Freeview's retune videos for more details (available on the Freeview website).

Ashley Banjo breaks silence after appearing in Bonnie Blue documentary

Ashley Banjo has broken his silence after he made a surprise appearance in Bonnie Blue's Channel 4 documentary, titled '1,000 Men and Me: The Bonnie Blue Story' Diversity frontman Ashley Banjo has broken his silence after fans were surprised to see a photo of him pop up in Bonnie Blue's recent documentary on Channel 4. The documentary focused on the controversial adult star Bonnie Blue, who has made a name for herself by taking part in and profiting from pornographic videos. ‌ During the documentary titled "1,000 Men and Me: The Bonnie Blue Story', dancer Ashley appeared in a form of a photo where he was seen with his arm around a younger Bonnie. ‌ The photo appeared while the porn star's mum discussed her passion for dance when she was younger. Ashley's name wasn't mentioned in the segment, but the picture clearly showed his face as he posed for a picture with Bonnie, who had dark brown hair at the time. It comes after David Beckham speaks 'as a father' in 'family' announcement after latest Brooklyn snub. ‌ Ashley has now broken his silence while chatting to his brother Jordan Banjo and fellow Diversity star Perri Kiely on the Brothers Uncovered podcast, where he gave listeners some context and explained that he had no idea he was in the documentary. The professional dancer said: 'Do you know what's nuts about it? Because I had a few messages, and people sending me, like videoing the screen going, 'you're in the Bonnie Blue documentary', The fact they don't mention my name, or there's no context'. He added: 'It's just the Bonnie Blue doc. And yes, they're talking about her being a dancer, but then we just pop up'. Jordan admitted that he 'panicked' when people were messaging him to say his brother was in the controversial documentary, before Ashley said: 'Ain't it mad though, you just never know, like what people are going to do, or who they are." ‌ The show featured a number of shocking moments, including one scene in which Bonnie filmed a sex tape with young female OnlyFans creators and a male porn star in a school classroom, leading to many fans calling out Channel 4 for making the 'uncomfortable' documentary. Fans were angry as they took to X, formerly known as Twitter, to air their frustrations at Channel 4, and claimed they were promoting Bonnie. ‌ One viewer penned: "So Bonnie Blue gets a documentary on channel 4 where she can promote and glamorise her lifestyle for the kids watching at home, but we need IDs to see posts on X because 'we need to protect the kids''. Another fumed: "I feel beyond uncomfortable watching this Bonnie Blue documentary, the fact she's been given a platform is concerning. Like it or not, this affects everyone in this generation, how normal this discourse has become from a woman herself is not okay." A third raged: "Channel 4 you are truly disgusting for airing a documentary about Bonnie blue in any way shape or form. Genuinely disappointing how that woman is allowed a platform of any sort, the fact she isn't jailed is beyond me. What a disgrace to all women. #bonnieblue #channel4 #Trending."

The photo flashed up on screen as her mum recalled her passion for dance as a youngster. He was not named when the photo was shown to viewers, but it was clear his image was a reference to Bonnie's love affair with dance. And now Ashley has broken his silence while chatting to his brother Jordan Banjo and Diversity star Perri Kiely on the Brothers Uncovered podcast. "Turns out Ash, you're in Bonnie Blue's documentary," Jordan said. "I do feature in Bonnie Blue's new documentary," Ashley confirmed. Jordan then gave listeners some "context" saying how Bonnie was once a dancer, with this spoken about on the programme. He then explained how they were showing clips of her dancing when she was younger. Adding how the snap appeared on-screen with Ashley posing with Bonnie, the boys all laughed. "Do you know what's nuts about it?

"The fact they don't mention my name, or there's no context," Ashley said. He went on: "It's just the Bonnie Blue doc. And yes they're talking about her being a dancer, but then we just pop up." Jordan then confessed that when he was getting messages saying his brother was in the documentary he "panicked a bit". Who is Bonnie Blue? Born in May 1999, Bonnie - whose real name is Tia Billinger - grew up in a small Derbyshire village, and attended the Friesland School in the village of Sandiacre. She has two half-siblings - a sister and a brother - who have always remained out of the public eye. She never knew her biological father, and considers stepfather Nicholas Elliott her dad. Bonnie also became something of a dance star in her local area, and competed in the British Street Dance Championships alongside her sister back in 2015. She also had a part-time job at Poundstretcher as a teenager. After school, she began working in recruitment. In October 2022, Bonnie married Oliver Davidson, who she had started dating when she was just 15. Once they were married, they moved to Australia, where Bonnie continued working in recruitment. However, it was in Australia that she decided to pursue a different line of work, and tried her luck as a 'cam girl' - crediting Oliver for giving her the confidence to enter the adult entertainment world. She quickly made a name for herself in the industry, and was soon making £5,000 a week. But while her work life was going from strength to strength, her relationship was crumbling, and she and Oliver split after almost a decade together. She moved over to OnlyFans following her cam girl success, and once again found fame on there. She quickly became a favourite on the site, especially thanks to her "niche" of sleeping with young male students - such as when she bedded 158 students during Nottingham Trent University's freshers week in September 2024. Bonnie is now estimated to be worth £3 million, and makes around £600,000 a month on OnlyFans. Her family are also supportive of her work, with mum Sarah Billinger even claiming she's her daughter's PA, and helps clean up after Bonnie's events - as well as handing out condoms to young clients. In January 2025, Bonnie claimed to have broken the world record for the most amount of sex in 12 hours, after apparently sleeping with 1,057 men from 1pm to 1am at a secret London event. "Ain't it mad though, you just never know, like what people are going to do," Ashley said. "Or who they are." He went on to say how Bonnie has gone on to become one of the most "controversial" and "talked about" people. Reacting to the clip from the podcast episode, which was shared on TikTok, fans got in on the action. One person asked: "Why was he watching the documentary in the first place?" Another joked: "Right away I was losing respect for Ash." "That's definitely someone you don't want to be associated with," penned a third, While a fourth asked: "Do they not notify you though?" 6 Jordan Banjo appeared on the podcast alongside his brother Credit: Channel 4

Jade Thirlwall has 'daily battle against Ozempic' after cruel pregnancy comments

Jade Thirlwall has made the heartbreaking confession that she struggles daily to not use weight-loss drugs after trolling. The Little Mix star has been dominating the music scene this year in preparation for her debut solo album, That's Showbiz, Baby! However, being under the spotlight has not come without its battles, particularly pressures to look a certain way and lose weight. 'I have a daily battle with myself not to go on Ozempic,' Jade, 32, confessed to The Guardian in a new interview. 'I don't judge people that do, but because I have a history of eating disorders, I don't know where taking something like that would end for me.' Ozempic and other GLP-1 drugs suppress your appetite while controlling glucose levels and other hunger signals, resulting in dramatic weight loss. She continued: 'Little Mix fans were all about empowerment and celebrating your body however you look. Now I'm in my 30s and the healthiest I've ever been, but every time I post a picture, there are comments saying, 'She must be pregnant.'' Jade's bandmates, Perrie Edwards, Jesy Nelson and Leigh-Anne Pinnock, have all welcomed children since the group went on hiatus. While the Angel of My Dreams hitmaker is settled with Rizzle Kicks icon Jordan Stephens, the pair have not publicly discussed plans to have children. 'The sad thing is that it's usually women,' she added. 'But people are used to seeing me in a group environment five or 10 years ago when I was stick-thin because I was in my early 20s with an eating disorder.' Little Mix were put together on The X Factor in 2011, becoming the first group and only girl group to ever win the long-running competition show. The Black Magic hitmakers sold over 75milion records, landing five UK number ones, 16 Top 10s, and three Brit Awards. Jade admitted that she shouldn't have been allowed to compete as she was incredibly fragile at the time, having just been discharged from hospital. Looking back at old photos, she now sees how 'very very thin' she was despite not believing she had relapsed under the industry pressure. 'Historically, if I've ever felt that something is out of my control, then restricting food has been a means of controlling my life in a very toxic way,' Jade explained. Now, away from the pressures of being in the biggest girl group in the world, Jade is thriving as a solo artist. All four former Little Mix stars have released their own music to varying success, with Leigh-Anne admitting she didn't enjoy going her own way as much as she expected to. 'The pressure is what stopped me enjoying it as much,' she said on Capital XTRA Breakfast last month. 'Obviously, coming from such a massive group and having the pressure to do just as well as that massive group did is kind of impossible to do overnight. 'That took 10 years. It takes work. And also, I'm not doing music like the group did. Like, I've gone down a different route, and I just think those expectations kind of like weighed on me and it was like, 'This is just not fun!' 'I'm doing this solo because one, I want to have fun. You know, I deserve to have that without feeling like this horrible pressure on me.' The band was shattered when, in 2020, Jesy decided to leave the band midway through their Confetti album promotion. Jesy has also spoken about issues with mental health, revealing that trolling on social media — including a tweet from Katy Hopkins about her weight — pushed her to attempt suicide. All the Little Mix stars have said they wished Jesy the best, but the announcement took them by surprise, with no private discussion. On the Louis Theroux podcast, Jade revealed she broke down crying in her car after hearing the news, prompting partner Jordan to spring into action. She said: 'We were driving up North to see my family. I just wailed and wailed for an hour or something. 'We parked up at services and he was like, 'do you want some peace?'. And I was like, 'yes'.' 'That's when I knew he was a keeper because he was like, 'are you alright on your own for a little bit?'. I mean, I couldn't actually speak. So I was screaming. 'And then he went out into the shops and he came back with a pasty from Greggs and I thought, 'that's the one'.' Got a story?
