I live at the Eastbourne end of Seaford and receive digital services via BT with an external antenna. When the last 'twiddle' took place we lost several freeview cartoon channels, which the children liked, and BBC Look South, we can only get BBC SouthEast...fine if we need to hear about Dorset, Portsmouth and the IOW...we don't! Any reason why this disappeared, and can we /will we ever get it back?
