Between 2007 and 2012 television services in the United Kingdom will be “switched over” from your old television broadcast signal (known as “analogue”) to a digital signal. After 2012, all television in the UK will be digital.
Any TV set or video recorder that’s not converted to digital when the switchover takes place will no longer receive TV programmes. There will be a Help Scheme available if you are aged 75 years old or over or you or a member of your household are disabled and getting certain social security benefits.
You can find out more about the Digital Help Scheme in our Factsheet F52 - help with the digital switchover.
