Add ITV Regions to Sky EPG

To add the additional ITV 1 regions, press "Services" on the Sky handset and then scroll down to "Other Channels" (button 6). Simply scroll down to the alternative ITV1 region you have manually added and press select to view it. To return to your existing Sky EPG channels by using the Channel up and Down buttons on the Sky handset.

It is not possible to add the additional ITV1 regions into the Sky EPG. This makes things a little awkward as access to these ITV channels to view them must always be made through Services > Other Channels. In case you are unaware, all BBC1 and 2 regions are transmitted on Sky EPG channels 941 to 962.
